Wisconsin State Income Tax Tables in 2022

As you navigate through the tax information for 2022 on this page, it's important to note that Wisconsin does not impose its own income tax. Instead, all income tax calculations for the year 2022 are based solely on the Federal Income Tax system. This means that for residents or income earners in Wisconsin, their tax obligations and 2025 tax return are determined entirely by the federal tax brackets and rates, without any additional state-level income tax considerations. This unique approach simplifies the tax calculation process, as you only need to refer to the Federal Tax Tables to understand your tax responsibilities for 2024.
