Oregon Paycheck Calculator (2026)

How income tax works in Oregon

Oregon’s wage tax is graduated and high at the top (up to 9.9%), and it has no state sales tax—so more of the public bill sits on the paycheck. Washington next door does not tax wages. Portland-metro extras are omitted here.

On the defaults, $72,000 as a single filer in Oregon lands near $4,479.64 a month and $2,067.52 biweekly. Federal income tax is about $7,010.00, Oregon state wage tax is $5,726.38, and FICA is about $5,508.00.

Then open the mortgage calculator if the next question is a house payment, or house affordability if you only have income and debts.
