Caveat: the Maine Revenue Services revised May 2026 rate schedule PDF returned HTTP 403 and was not retrieved directly. Brackets and the $5,300 exemption rest on the September 2025 MRS schedule as reported and consistent secondary reporting; the $15,700 standard deduction is settled by a directly retrieved August 2026 MRS alert.

Read this before you use the take-home figure. It is a single-filer estimate using the 2026 standard deduction. It leaves out credits, other deductions, local taxes, and retirement or health deductions. Your actual paycheck can differ, and for states without a verified 2026 table in this build, state tax is still to be added once its table is verified.
