Frequently Asked Questions

Does ND tax long-term vs short-term gains differently?

ND generally taxes gains at ordinary income rates—no separate state LTCG rate.

Does ND tax interest and dividends?

Yes—generally included unless a specific subtraction exists (e.g., certain U.S. obligations).

Any quick way to compare after-tax returns on investments?

Use CAGR, Compound Interest, and Bond Yield to size up pretax vs after-tax growth, then integrate the result with your ND net-pay plan.

How can I tune withholding to target a small refund?

Model your expected ND-1 liability on our page, then tweak “extra withholding” per paycheck until projected refund ≈ $0. Re-check after raises/bonuses and when changing 401(k)/HSA levels.

Are military salaries taxed by ND?

Active-duty pay for residents follows federal guidelines; ND offers specific subtractions/benefits in some cases—see ND-1SA.
