Methodology
How Pennsylvania income tax is calculated
Pennsylvania applies a single flat rate of 3.07% to all taxable income. The standard deduction for Pennsylvania single filers is not applicable. Taxable income equals gross income minus your deduction (standard or itemized).
Formula
Taxable income = Gross income − Deduction Pennsylvania tax = Taxable income × 3.07%
Tax year scope
This calculator uses 2025 tax year rates as published by the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue.
Marginal vs. effective rate
Because Pennsylvania uses a flat rate, your marginal and effective state income tax rates are the same percentage (3.07%). Your effective rate as a share of gross income will be lower because the deduction reduces taxable income before the rate is applied.
Limitations
- Covers state income tax only — federal income tax is separate.
- Does not account for tax credits, phase-outs, or alternative minimum tax provisions.
- Local income taxes (where applicable) are not modeled.

For flat-rate states like Pennsylvania, your marginal rate and effective rate are the same percentage — both equal the flat rate (3.07%). However, the effective rate as a share of your gross income will be lower than 3.07% because your deduction reduces taxable income before the rate is applied.
