Why the gross salary you need for a given take-home in New York depends on New York income tax, federal tax, and FICA—and how to use this calculator.

What is a New York net to gross calculator?

A net to gross calculator tells you the gross salary you need so that after taxes you receive a target take-home (net) pay. This New York net to gross calculator uses current federal tax brackets, New York state income tax rules, and FICA (Social Security and Medicare) so the result is accurate for New York residents. Enter your desired annual take-home above, choose your filing status and number of children, and get the gross you need.

New York state income tax and gross salary needed

New York has a progressive state income tax. That means to achieve the same take-home pay as someone in a no–state-income-tax state (e.g. Texas, Florida), you need a higher gross salary in New York. The calculator above applies New York state tax so the gross it shows is the amount you’d need to earn in New York to net your target. For a forward calculation (gross to net) with a full breakdown, use our US Tax Calculator and select New York.

When to use a net to gross calculator in New York

Use this New York net to gross calculator when you know the take-home you need and want to know what salary to ask for or budget from—e.g. "I need $5,000/month after tax in New York, what gross do I need?" It’s useful for job offers (comparing gross in New York vs other states), relocation (how much more gross you might need in New York to keep the same net), and side income planning.
