Seven brackets for single filers: 2% on the first $10,000, 4.5% to $50,000, 5.5% to $100,000, 6% to $200,000, 6.5% to $250,000, 6.9% to $500,000 and 6.99% above. Joint filers' brackets are twice as wide, and heads of household's 2% bracket runs to $16,000. These are the 2026 rates on the Department of Revenue Services' Form CT-1040ES. ### Does Connecticut have a standard deduction? No. Connecticut has a personal exemption instead, up to $15,000 single and $24,000 joint, but it phases out completely once Connecticut AGI reaches $44,000 single, $71,000 joint, $35,000 married filing separately or $56,000 head of household. The calculator doesn't apply it, so it overstates tax below those incomes. ### How does Connecticut's 2% bracket phase-out work? Once Connecticut AGI passes $56,500 (single), $50,250 (married filing separately), $100,500 (joint) or $78,500 (head of household), the 2% bracket shrinks and the freed income is taxed at 4.5% instead. Single filers lose the whole bracket above $101,500. The calculator uses the phase-out as it stands at $104,000 of income, so it's exact near that income but overstates tax for lower incomes (by up to $250 for a single filer) and understates it for higher joint and head-of-household incomes. ### What else does this calculator leave out for Connecticut? Connecticut's personal exemption, personal tax credit and recapture all depend on income, and the calculator uses each as it stands at $104,000 of income, where all three are zero, for every income. Lower earners get the credit, worth a share of their tax, until $64,500 of AGI (single) or $100,500 (joint), so they see too much tax: for a single filer earning $25,000 to $30,000 the exemption and the 2% bracket alone account for $925 a year, and the credit adds more. Higher earners pay the recapture on top of the bracket tax, starting above $105,000 of Connecticut AGI (single), $210,000 (joint) or $168,000 (head of household), so they see too little, by up to $3,400 a year single, $6,800 joint and $5,320 head of household. ## Paycheck Calculators for Other States - [Alabama](https://pay44.app/alabama-paycheck-calculator/) - [Alaska](https://pay44.app/alaska-paycheck-calculator/) - [Arizona](https://pay44.app/arizona-paycheck-calculator/) - [Arkansas](https://pay44.app/arkansas-paycheck-calculator/) - [California](https://pay44.app/california-paycheck-calculator/) - [Colorado](https://pay44.app/colorado-paycheck-calculator/) - [Delaware](https://pay44.app/delaware-paycheck-calculator/) - [District of Columbia](https://pay44.app/dc-paycheck-calculator/) - [Florida](https://pay44.app/florida-paycheck-calculator/) - [Georgia](https://pay44.app/georgia-paycheck-calculator/) - [Hawaii](https://pay44.app/hawaii-paycheck-calculator/) - [Idaho](https://pay44.app/idaho-paycheck-calculator/) - [Illinois](https://pay44.app/illinois-paycheck-calculator/) - [Indiana](https://pay44.app/indiana-paycheck-calculator/) - [Iowa](https://pay44.app/iowa-paycheck-calculator/) - [Kansas](https://pay44.app/kansas-paycheck-calculator/) - [Kentucky](https://pay44.app/kentucky-paycheck-calculator/) - [Louisiana](https://pay44.app/louisiana-paycheck-calculator/) - [Maine](https://pay44.app/maine-paycheck-calculator/) - [Maryland](https://pay44.app/maryland-paycheck-calculator/) - [Massachusetts](https://pay44.app/massachusetts-paycheck-calculator/) - [Michigan](https://pay44.app/michigan-paycheck-calculator/) - [Minnesota](https://pay44.app/minnesota-paycheck-calculator/) - [Mississippi](https://pay44.app/mississippi-paycheck-calculator/) - [Missouri](https://pay44.app/missouri-paycheck-calculator/) - [Montana](https://pay44.app/montana-paycheck-calculator/) - [Nebraska](https://pay44.app/nebraska-paycheck-calculator/) - [Nevada](https://pay44.app/nevada-paycheck-calculator/) - [New Hampshire](https://pay44.app/new-hampshire-paycheck-calculator/) - [New Jersey](https://pay44.app/new-jersey-paycheck-calculator/) - [New Mexico](https://pay44.app/new-mexico-paycheck-calculator/) - [New York](https://pay44.app/new-york-paycheck-calculator/) - [North Carolina](https://pay44.app/north-carolina-paycheck-calculator/) - [North Dakota](https://pay44.app/north-dakota-paycheck-calculator/) - [Ohio](https://pay44.app/ohio-paycheck-calculator/) - [Oklahoma](https://pay44.app/oklahoma-paycheck-calculator/) - [Oregon](https://pay44.app/oregon-paycheck-calculator/) - [Pennsylvania](https://pay44.app/pennsylvania-paycheck-calculator/) - [Rhode Island](https://pay44.app/rhode-island-paycheck-calculator/) - [South Carolina](https://pay44.app/south-carolina-paycheck-calculator/) - [South Dakota](https://pay44.app/south-dakota-paycheck-calculator/) - [Tennessee](https://pay44.app/tennessee-paycheck-calculator/) - [Texas](https://pay44.app/texas-paycheck-calculator/) - [Utah](https://pay44.app/utah-paycheck-calculator/) - [Vermont](https://pay44.app/vermont-paycheck-calculator/) - [Virginia](https://pay44.app/virginia-paycheck-calculator/) - [Washington](https://pay44.app/washington-paycheck-calculator/) - [West Virginia](https://pay44.app/west-virginia-paycheck-calculator/) - [Wisconsin](https://pay44.app/wisconsin-paycheck-calculator/) - [Wyoming](https://pay44.app/wyoming-paycheck-calculator/)
