Yonkers Paycheck Calculator (2026)

Last reviewed: April 20, 2026

Yonkers is a New York City suburb in Westchester County, and residents pay a small surcharge on top of New York state income tax. The Yonkers resident tax is structured as 16.75% of the New York state income tax owed for the year, not as a separate bracket schedule. That means the surcharge scales with state liability and is meaningfully smaller than NYC's own bracketed city tax. New York state's progressive brackets and the SDI framework still apply, since Yonkers residents are New York state residents first. This calculator estimates 2026 take-home pay for a Yonkers resident after federal tax, FICA, New York state tax, and the Yonkers resident surcharge. It supports pre-tax 401(k) and HSA deductions.

Yonkers paycheck FAQ

How does the Yonkers tax differ from the NYC tax?
Yonkers is a surcharge: 16.75% of the New York state income tax owed for the year. NYC uses its own bracket schedule with marginal rates from 3.078% up to 3.876%. At most income levels, the Yonkers structure produces a smaller dollar amount than the NYC structure on the same gross.
Do non-residents who work in Yonkers owe the resident surcharge?
No. The 16.75% resident surcharge applies only to Yonkers residents. Non-residents who work in Yonkers may owe a small earnings tax on wages earned within the city, which is a separate, much smaller line that is not included in this calculator.
Do Yonkers residents pay the NYC tax if they commute into NYC?
No. The NYC personal income tax applies only to NYC residents. A Yonkers resident commuting to a job in NYC pays the New York state line and the Yonkers resident surcharge, but no NYC city tax on those wages.
