Common questions

Why is my real paycheck a little different?
Payroll systems round in their own way, and small differences of a few cents are normal. Bigger differences usually come from: a W-4 or state form that differs from what you entered; pre-tax benefits (401(k), health, HSA) entered differently; a bonus paid on its own check (it may be taxed at a flat 22% federal rate); a local tax (city, county or school district) not entered; or yearly limits, such as Social Security stopping after $184,500 of wages in 2026.

Which tax tables does it use?
For 2026: the IRS percentage method for automated payroll (Publication 15-T) with the 2026 W-4, Social Security and Medicare from Publication 15, and each state's own 2026 withholding method. In the app, More, 2026 tax tables and sources lists every document with a link.

What does "estimate only" mean for my state?
We could not verify that state's 2026 withholding table, so the app uses the latest official table we could read and tells you so. The federal part and Social Security and Medicare are not affected.

How do the new tips and overtime deductions work?
For 2026, qualified tips (up to $25,000) and the extra "half" of time-and-a-half overtime (up to $12,500, or $25,000 married filing jointly) can be deducted on your federal return. Your employer only withholds less during the year if you give them a new W-4 with the amount in Step 4(b). The Pro W-4 helper works out that amount with the IRS worksheet and shows how much bigger each check gets. If you claim too much, you may owe at tax time.

Cash tips versus card tips
Cash tips you keep are still taxed through your paycheck if you report them, so the check gets smaller while your total take-home (check plus cash) grows. Enter cash tips and card tips paid through payroll in their own boxes.
