Worked example

Worked example. The booklet's example inputs: $1,800 a week, single, 2020-or-later W-4. The percentage table gives $701.51 a year — $13 a week after the worksheet's rounding (see the note in the scope statement).
Federal income tax $226.19 · Social Security $111.60 · Medicare $26.10 · North Dakota withholding $13.00 · Take-home $1,423.11 per week

How North Dakota withholding works

For a 2020-or-later W-4, North Dakota annualizes your taxable wages and applies the Annual Percentage Method Table for your Step 1(c) filing status (0% up to $57,625 single / $57,500 married / $78,475 head of household, then 1.95%, then 2.50%), and rounds the per-period result to the nearest dollar.

Current parameters

form note	North Dakota has no state withholding form; employers use the federal Form W-4. The booklet has separate percentage-method tables for employees with a pre-2020 W-4 (allowance-based) and a 2020-or-later W-4 (worksheet-based).
pre2020 allowance value annual	5,050
annual percentage table 2020plus single	3 entries (see the cited publication)
annual percentage table 2020plus married filing jointly	3 entries (see the cited publication)
annual percentage table 2020plus head of household	3 entries (see the cited publication)
pre2020 annual table7 note	Pre-2020 W-4 annual Table 7 (wages after allowances) uses the same thresholds: Single/HoH-style single table $57,625 / $258,450 and Married $57,500 / $168,525 at 1.95% then 2.50%; HoH pre-2020 uses the single table.

What this page covers — and what it doesn't

State method only; North Dakota has no local income taxes. One honest note: the booklet's own worked example for the case below prints $14.00 a week, but that figure does not follow from the booklet's percentage table (it gives $13) — the example appears to be a stale carryover, and this calculator follows the table, as payroll systems do.
