How Rhode Island withholding works

Rhode Island withholds state income tax at rates from 3.75% to 5.99% of taxable wages, by the state's own withholding method.

Your employer uses your Rhode Island Form RI W-4, and the calculator asks its questions.

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

A bonus paid on its own check has Rhode Island income tax withheld at a flat 5.99%.

Rhode Island also takes these payroll programs from paychecks:

  • Temporary Disability and Caregiver Insurance (TDI): 1.1% of wages up to $100,000 a year (at most $1,100.00)
