Not every worker is entitled to overtime
Follows the federal Fair Labor Standards Act: covered, non-exempt employees earn at least 1.5× their regular rate for hours worked beyond 40 in a workweek. There is no daily overtime requirement. Annualised at 52 weeks to estimate your tax bracket, so a single heavy week is taxed as if every week looked the same — real withholding on an unusually large paycheck is often higher, and evens out when you file.

Why self-employment tax feels so high
Does not include the qualified business income (QBI) deduction, the self-employed health insurance deduction, or state and local business taxes such as gross receipts or franchise tax. QBI in particular can reduce federal taxable income by up to 20% for many freelancers, so treat this as a conservative estimate. Paying 90% of your current-year liability or 100% of last year’s generally avoids an underpayment penalty.
Indiana Income Taxes
Does Indiana have a state income tax?
Indiana charges a flat state rate on adjusted gross income, reduced by a $1,000 exemption for you (and $1,000 for a spouse) plus $1,000 for each dependent.
The state rate has been dropping on a fixed schedule. Check the Department of Revenue's departmental notice for the exact rate in force this year.
County income tax is the part people forget. Every Indiana county adds its own rate — in some counties that more than doubles what comes out of your paycheck for income tax. Look up your county of residence as of January 1.
Indiana taxes are based on where you lived on January 1, so moving counties mid-year does not change your county rate until the following year.
Traditional 401(k) contributions reduce Indiana taxable income the same way they reduce federal taxable income.

Indiana Minimum Wage & Overtime
Minimum wage
$7.25 / hour
Effective July 24, 2009
Indiana's minimum wage matches the federal $7.25 per hour, and state law preempts cities from setting a higher local rate.
Overtime rules
Follows the federal Fair Labor Standards Act: covered, non-exempt employees earn at least 1.5× their regular rate for hours worked beyond 40 in a workweek. There is no daily overtime requirement.
Whether you are entitled to overtime at all depends on your job duties and how you are paid, not just your hours. Executive, administrative, professional, outside sales and certain computer roles can be exempt.
What this Indiana estimate does not include
Every paycheck calculator makes simplifying assumptions. Here are ours, so you know exactly where the estimate could differ from your real pay stub or tax return.
- City, county and school district income taxes are not included in the estimate.
- County income tax can add 0.5% to over 3% and is not included. Add your county's rate to the estimate for a realistic Indiana figure.
- State-level tax credits (child and dependent care, earned income, renter and property tax credits) are not applied.
- Assumes you live and work in this state for the whole year. Multi-state and remote-work situations follow different rules.
Common questions about Indiana taxes
How much tax is taken out of my paycheck in Indiana?
On a $65,000 salary, a single filer in Indiana keeps about $52,520 a year — roughly $4,377 a month. That is an effective tax rate of about 19.2%, made up of $5,620 federal income tax, $1,888 Indiana income tax, and $4,973 in Social Security and Medicare.
Does Indiana have a state income tax?
Yes. Indiana taxes wage income at 2.95% flat, meaning the same rate applies to every dollar of taxable income. Local income taxes also apply in parts of Indiana, on top of the state rate.
How much is $100,000 after taxes in Indiana?
A single filer earning $100,000 in Indiana takes home approximately $76,260 a year, or $6,355 a month, after an estimated $23,741 in federal tax, state tax, Social Security and Medicare. That is an effective tax rate of 23.7%. Filing jointly, itemizing or contributing to a 401(k) all change the figure.
How is overtime calculated in Indiana?
Follows the federal Fair Labor Standards Act: covered, non-exempt employees earn at least 1.5× their regular rate for hours worked beyond 40 in a workweek. There is no daily overtime requirement. Overtime pay is taxed as ordinary income — there is no separate overtime tax rate — but because a big overtime week raises your annualised pay, payroll systems often withhold more from that paycheck than your yearly rate implies. It evens out when you file.
How are bonuses taxed in Indiana?
Bonuses are supplemental wages. Most employers withhold a flat 22% for federal tax, plus 2.95% for Indiana. Social Security and Medicare apply too. On a $10,000 bonus with a $100,000 salary, expect roughly $6,740 to land in your account. Withholding is not your final tax — if too much was withheld you get it back when you file.
How much should a 1099 worker save for taxes in Indiana?
On $70,000 of net self-employment profit, a single filer in Indiana owes roughly $17,407 in combined self-employment and income tax — about 24.9% of profit. Setting aside 27.9% of every payment is a safer rule of thumb, because it leaves room for a good year pushing you into a higher bracket. Estimated payments are due quarterly.
What is the minimum wage in Indiana?
Indiana's minimum wage is $7.25 per hour as of July 24, 2009. Indiana's minimum wage matches the federal $7.25 per hour, and state law preempts cities from setting a higher local rate.
Are there local income taxes in Indiana?
Every Indiana county levies its own local income tax on top of the state rate, ranging from roughly 0.5% to over 3%. The rate is set by the county where you lived on January 1, not where you work, and it is withheld from your paycheck alongside the state tax. County rates are not included in the estimate above.

Federal income tax is estimated using the annual rate schedules and the standard deduction for your filing status. It assumes a Form W-4 filled out with no dependent credits, no other income and no extra deductions claimed in Steps 3 and 4.
Itemized deductions, the Child Tax Credit, education credits, the Earned Income Tax Credit, the qualified business income deduction and the Alternative Minimum Tax are not modeled.
Employer withholding and final tax liability are different numbers. What comes out of your paycheck is an advance payment; the return you file determines what you actually owe.
