Oregon taxes on hourly pay
Oregon uses a graduated schedule with 4 brackets from 4.75% to 9.9%. The top rate applies to taxable income above $125,000 for single filers and $250,000 for joint filers. Only the income inside each bracket is taxed at that bracket's rate, which is why the effective rate on your whole paycheck is lower than the top rate.
Before the rates apply, Oregon allows a standard deduction of $2,910 for single filers and $5,820 for joint filers and personal exemption credits of $256 per filer and $256 per dependent. The calculator applies these automatically based on your filing status and the dependents you enter.
Beyond income tax, Oregon employees pay into state programs that appear as separate lines on a pay stub: Paid Leave Oregon (employee share) at 0.6% of wages up to $184,500; Oregon statewide transit tax at 0.1% of all wages. These are included in the estimate.
Multnomah County Preschool for All (1.5% to 3% above $125,000 single) and Metro Supportive Housing (1% above $125,000 single) apply to some Portland-area residents.
| Rate | Single filers | Married filing jointly |
|---|---|---|
| 4.75% | $0 – $4,550 | $0 – $9,100 |
| 6.75% | $4,550 – $11,400 | $9,100 – $22,800 |
| 8.75% | $11,400 – $125,000 | $22,800 – $250,000 |
| 9.9% | over $125,000 | over $250,000 |
Standard deduction: $2,910 single, $5,820 joint. Personal exemption credit: $256 per filer, $256 per dependent. Married filing separately and head of household use the single schedule in this estimate.
Frequently asked questions
How is hourly take-home pay calculated in Oregon?
Gross pay is your hourly rate × hours, with overtime hours at 1.5× your rate. The calculator annualises that amount, works out federal withholding under IRS Publication 15-T, applies Social Security (6.2%) and Medicare (1.45%), then applies Oregon's 2026 income tax rates, deductions and exemptions and the state payroll programs listed on this page, and divides everything back into your pay period.
What is $20 an hour after taxes in Oregon?
At 40 hours a week, $20 an hour is $800.00 gross per week. For a single filer with a standard W-4 in 2026, take-home pay is about $625.08 a week, or $32,504 a year (an effective tax rate of 21.9%).
How is overtime taxed in Oregon?
Overtime is taxed like any other wages: it is added to your gross pay before federal, FICA and Oregon taxes are calculated. A large overtime week can push more of your pay into a higher federal withholding band for that period, which is why the withholding on an overtime-heavy paycheck looks disproportionately high; it evens out on your annual return.
Does Oregon have state income tax on hourly wages?
Yes. Oregon withholds income tax from hourly wages at graduated rates up to 9.9% after its deductions and exemptions, exactly as it does for salaried employees.
How many hours count as full time for this calculator?
The calculator uses whatever you enter. 40 hours is the usual full-time week; hours above 40 in a workweek are paid at 1.5× under the federal Fair Labor Standards Act for non-exempt employees, and some states have daily overtime rules the calculator does not model.
