How Minnesota withholding works

Minnesota withholds state income tax at rates from 5.35% to 9.85% of taxable wages, by the state's own withholding method.

Your employer uses your Minnesota Form W-4MN, and the calculator asks its questions.

401(k) contributions, health premiums, and HSA contributions all lower the wages Minnesota taxes, as they do for federal income tax.

A bonus paid on its own check has Minnesota income tax withheld at a flat 6.25%.

Minnesota also takes these payroll programs from paychecks:

  • Minnesota Paid Leave: 0.44% of wages up to $185,000 a year (at most $814.00)
