Income tax in Wisconsin

Wisconsin's July 2025 budget (Act 15) retroactively widened the 4.4% bracket for tax year 2025 — it now covers income up to $50,480 single / $67,300 joint before the 5.3% rate begins, with the top 7.65% rate above $323,290 / $431,060. The standard deduction shown is the maximum; it slides downward as income rises. Capital gains are taxed as ordinary income, but 30% of net long-term gains are excluded, so this estimate overstates tax on large gains.
