US PAYCHECK CALCULATOR / WEST VIRGINIA

West Virginia
paycheck calculator.

West Virginia uses IT-104 allowances and a separate election for the lower one-earner table. Filing jointly alone does not select that election.

West Virginia state form — review defaults

Additional state withholding ($)

Use your state withholding certificate, not the federal W-4 allowance count. Values start at zero; review them before calculating.

State certificate allowances / exemptions

IT-104 lower one-earner rate elected

Confirm local/other charges below, including a confirmed zero, to finish the net estimate. Special exemptions and alternative state certificate elections not shown here require payroll review.

Local payroll charges — not confirmed

Check your paystub for local or other employee payroll charges not already entered as benefits or after-tax deductions.

Ask your employer: “Are any local or other payroll charges missing from this breakdown, and how much applies to this paycheck?” If you do not know, leave the confirmation unchecked. Where local confirmation is required, the result stays partial.

Local / other charges this paycheck ($)

Enter a confirmed dollar amount, including 0 if payroll confirms none. Changing this amount clears confirmation.

I checked with payroll or my paystub: this local amount is correct

Use each deduction once. Do not repeat amounts entered under benefits or after-tax deductions.

Estimates only. Annual salary assumes equal regular paychecks. Variable pay, tips, multiple employers and nonresident-alien rules require separate review.

Calculated in your browser. No salary entries saved or transmitted by this tool.

How West Virginia withholding is handled

West Virginia uses IT-104 allowances and a separate election for the lower one-earner table. Filing jointly alone does not select that election.

A state withholding example

On $1,000 weekly taxable pay with no allowances, normal state withholding is $34 under the default table or $31 with the lower one-earner election.

Coverage limits

Uses the revised March 2026 tables for paydates June 12 onward and whole-dollar rounding. Confirm any city service fees separately.

Regular resident W-2 wages only. Use confirmed local/other payroll charges where required. No tax-return, reciprocity, nonresident-alien or special-occupation calculations. Benefit entries must qualify under your employer’s plan.
