Virginia Paycheck Calculator and Payroll Taxes 

• Virginia payroll taxes start with employees filling out Form VA-4.
• If an employee does not finish this form, you can withhold tax as no exemptions are claimed.
• Employees need to update Form VA-4 in case of life events such as divorce or adoption of a child, which might impact their taxes.
• The personal income tax rate in Virginia is 2%-5.75%.

How Virginia Paycheck Tax Calculator Works? 

Using our Virginia Paycheck Calculator is as easy as 1-2-3. Simply enter your gross income, pay frequency, and any additional details such as pre-tax deductions. Our calculator will instantly provide a detailed breakdown of your paycheck, including gross pay, total deductions, and your final take-home amount.

All employers in Virginia must withhold FICA taxes from your paycheck, the same as everywhere else. FICA taxes consist of withholding for Social Security and Medicare. Social Security withholding is 6.2% of your pay; Medicare withholding is 1.45% of your income per paycheck period. Your employer will pay those same percentages; the total FICA you and your employer paid is double the amount you pay.

Self-employed taxpayers generally must pay the full FICA amount rather than splitting as most taxpayers do with their employers. As a self-employed taxpayer, you don’t have an employer who will pay your FICA taxes. As a self-employed taxpayer, you must bear the entire cost of your FICA taxes. However, during tax time, a deduction allows self-employed workers to recoup a portion of the “employer” portion of their FICA taxes.
