How each New York line is calculated

New York employee paystubs in this app automatically show NY State Income Tax plus the applicable NYC or Yonkers local tax lines and the NY employee-paid program lines. NYC and Yonkers applicability still depends on the resident city data captured in the form. New York Disability Benefits coverage can also create an employer-side premium cost depending on the policy used.

Line Who pays Rate Wage base
NY Disability Benefits
Employee contribution at 0.5% of wages, capped per pay period based on a $0.60 weekly maximum in the current payroll rules.
Employee 0.5% No cap
NY Employer Disability Benefits
New York statutory Disability Benefits coverage is arranged through an approved carrier or self-insured plan. Employees may contribute only up to the small capped employee amount, so the remaining disability premium cost is generally employer-side and depends on the actual policy premium or self-insured funding method.
Employer User supplied No cap

Employee contribution at 0.432% of wages, limited by the annual contribution cap used in the current payroll rules.

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, EmployerProgramRatePercent, EmployeeContributionSharePercent.
