How each Louisiana line is calculated

Louisiana employee paystubs in this app automatically show a single LA State Income Tax line. No separate Louisiana employee-paid statewide payroll program line is currently required in the matrix.

Line Who pays Rate Wage base
LA State Income Tax
Annualized Louisiana withholding brackets from the current state-tax model.
3 annualized brackets
Annual wages over But not over Base tax Plus
$0 $12,500 $0 1.85%
$12,500 $50,000 $500 3.5%

Employee Progressive brackets No cap
LA UI Contribution
Louisiana unemployment insurance is employer-paid. The exact contribution depends on the employer's assigned LWC unemployment tax rate and the current Louisiana taxable wage base, so the calculator should ask for the employer's current Louisiana UI rate notice and wage base to produce an exact total.
 Employer User supplied No cap

Official sources

Some state or local tax rules for this jurisdiction are still partial and may require user-entered rates or manual review. Some employer-side state taxes depend on employer size, assigned unemployment rates, or program elections. Review the line notes before relying on those totals. Some state-specific lines need additional answers before the calculator can resolve all applicable rates: EmployerAssignedRatePercent, EmployerTaxableWageBase.
