What to do next
How it works
The calculator starts from your income after pre-tax contributions, subtracts Delaware's standard deduction and personal exemptions where they exist, and applies a graduated state income tax with 7 brackets from 0% to 6.6%. Personal credits come off the tax. Delaware allows a standard deduction of $3,250 for single filers and a personal credit of $110.
Things to keep in mind
Some cities or counties in Delaware levy their own income or wage tax, which is not included here. Itemized deductions and state-specific credits are not applied, so filers with large deductions will owe less than shown.
Some Delaware rules, such as high-income phase-outs or special rates on certain income, are left out of this estimate. The state revenue department's own calculator or instructions have the full detail.
