Withholding Formula >(Minnesota Effective 2017)<
- Subtract the nontaxable biweekly Thrift Savings Plan contribution from the gross biweekly wages.
- Subtract the nontaxable biweekly Federal Health Benefits Plan payment(s) (includes dental and vision insurance program, and flexible spending account - health care and dependent care deductions) from the amount computed in step 1.
- Add the taxable biweekly fringe benefits (taxable life insurance, etc.) to the amount computed in step 2 to obtain the adjusted gross biweekly wages.
- Multiply the adjusted gross biweekly wages times >26< to obtain the gross annual wages.
- Determine the exemption allowance by applying the following guideline and subtract this amount from the gross annual wages to compute the taxable income.
Exemption Allowance = >$4,050< x Number of Exemptions
- Apply the taxable income computed in step 5 to the following table to determine the annual Minnesota tax withholding.
