Income tax in West Virginia

West Virginia's rates dropped an additional 2% effective January 1, 2025 under a revenue-trigger law, giving 2025 brackets from 2.22% to a top 4.82% (above $60,000 of taxable income, same schedule for all statuses). The state has no standard deduction — only a $2,000-per-person exemption — so tax applies from nearly the first dollar. Further trigger-based cuts are possible in future years.
