Income tax in Nebraska

Nebraska's top rate fell to 5.2% for 2025 (from 5.84% in 2024) under a phase-down that continues to 4.55% in 2026 and 3.99% in 2027. The 2025 standard deduction is $8,600 single / $17,200 married filing jointly; the personal exemption is structured as a small per-person credit rather than a deduction, so it is not modeled here.
