Minnesota Tax Calculator
The Minnesota (MN) Tax Calculator is updated for the 2026/27 tax year. It estimates Minnesota state income tax, federal tax, and FICA/Medicare to help you determine your take-home pay. Minnesota uses a progressive income tax system with credits such as the Working Family Credit, Child and Dependent Care Credit, and Property Tax Refund (M1PR). Locality-based credits and refunds make it particularly helpful for homeowners and low-income families.
