How the Georgia estimate works
Enter gross pay for one pay period, federal W-4 adjustments, and the state details shown above. Federal withholding follows Publication 15-T. Georgia uses the 2026 percentage method: annualized wages are reduced by the standard deduction for the selected Georgia filing status and the dependent allowance, then the published 4.99% rate is applied and returned to the selected pay period.
Example: Georgia filing status and dependent allowances come from the state withholding certificate and are not copied from the federal W-4. The calculator does not assume any unentered benefit deduction or invent a tax result.
Weekly, biweekly, semimonthly, and monthly are the supported paycheck frequencies. “Annual salary” is an earnings input and the annual view is a simple period multiplication; neither is an annual payroll-period method. The special Form W-4 adjustment for nonresident aliens is not modeled.
