Worked example

Worked example. Example 1 of the Oregon Withholding Tax Formulas: single, $25,000 a year, 0 allowances, $1,000 of federal withholding — $1,789 a year, which Example 2 converts to $149 a month, $75 semi-monthly, $69 biweekly, $34 a week.
Federal income tax $19.23 · Social Security $29.81 · Medicare $6.97 · Oregon withholding $34.00 · Oregon statewide transit tax (0.1% of gross wages) $0.48 · Take-home $390.28 per week

How Oregon withholding works

State form: OR-W-4.

Oregon's formula: from annualized wages subtract your federal income tax withholding (capped at $8,750, phasing out at higher wages — over $125,000 single / $250,000 married) and the standard deduction ($2,910 single; $5,820 married or single with 3+ allowances), apply the bracket formula, subtract $263 per allowance, and round to whole dollars. Allowances are forced to zero once wages pass $100,000 single / $200,000 married. The statewide transit tax — 0.1% of gross wages — is withheld on its own line, even when no income tax is due.

Current parameters

structure	BASE = annualized wages - federal income tax withheld (capped, phased out) - standard deduction; apply bracket formula to BASE; subtract $263 exemption credit per allowance; divide by pay periods
standard deduction single	2,910
standard deduction married or single 3plus allowances	5,820
exemption credit per allowance	263
federal tax subtraction cap	8,750
federal tax subtraction phaseout single	$8,750 under $125,000 wages, stepping down $1,750 per $5,000 band to $0 at $145,000
federal tax subtraction phaseout married	$8,750 under $250,000 wages, stepping down $1,750 per $10,000 band to $0 at $290,000
allowances zero if wages over	See the cited publication
no form rate pct	8.0
brackets on base single	4 entries (see the cited publication)
brackets on base married	4 entries (see the cited publication)
bracket note	Base figures in the formula rows include the +$263 first-allowance offset as printed (WH = 263 + [BASE x 0.0475] - 263 x allowances for the first row); high-wage formula pages print adjusted bases ($678/$1,357) for BASE ranges starting at $38,340/$35,430. Model from pp.6-7 of the publication.

What this page covers — and what it doesn't

State plus the statewide transit tax. TriMet and Lane Transit district taxes are employer-paid and never appear on your stub. The publication contradicts itself in four places (an $8,500 vs $8,750 cap among them); this calculator uses the formula pages' figures, which the worked example below confirms.
