About Nebraska income tax
Nebraska uses progressive tax brackets ranging from 2.46% up to 5.64%. Because the system is progressive, your first dollars are taxed at the lowest rate and only income above each threshold is taxed at the higher rates — so your effective rate is lower than the 5.64% top rate.
This page applies Nebraska's published single-filer brackets to the income you enter. It doesn't include Nebraska's own standard deduction, personal exemptions, or credits, which can lower your actual bill.
