Enter gross pay for one pay period, federal W-4 adjustments, and the state details shown above. Federal withholding follows Publication 15-T. Rhode Island subtracts the official pay-period value of each RI W-4 allowance unless the paycheck exceeds that period’s exemption phaseout threshold, then applies the 2026 percentage table used for every filing status and adds RI W-4 Line 2. TDI and TCI share one 1.1% employee contribution on same-employer wages through $100,000.
Example: The official Rhode Island example uses $2,195 of weekly wages and one allowance. After subtracting $19.23, the percentage table applies $59.18 plus 4.75% of the amount over $1,578, producing $87.57 of Rhode Island income-tax withholding. 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.
Are Rhode Island TDI and TCI two paycheck taxes? No. TCI is funded through the same employee TDI contribution. For 2026, the combined state-plan deduction is 1.1% of the first $100,000 paid by an employer, for a maximum of $1,100 per employer.
