Minnesota's income tax is graduated: 4 brackets running from 5.35% to 9.85%, the 7th-highest top rate of the 51 jurisdictions. The top rate applies to a single filer's taxable income above $203,150. Joint filers have their own schedule, and it is not simply doubled: the top rate starts at $337,930 for a couple against $203,150 for a single filer. Heads of household get a third schedule of their own, wider than the single one. A single filer subtracts a $15,300 standard deduction before the rates are applied.

Assumptions
- Ordinary-income rate schedules only; no credits, AMT, capital-gains rates, QBI deduction or the 2025–2028 senior deduction.
- Standard deduction (plus additional amounts for 65+/blind) or your itemized figure, whichever is larger; no dependent-filer limitation.
- Married filing separately uses half the joint federal thresholds, per the IRS schedule, and the state's single-filer schedule.
- State tax uses each state's published rate schedule, standard deduction and personal exemption for the tax year shown with the results; the source URL and year for the state you pick are printed above the results, along with the simplifications made for that state.
- State figures exclude county, municipal and city income taxes, itemized deductions, retirement and capital-gains exclusions, and credits that phase out. Unlisted states fall back to the flat rate you enter.

State income tax on a single filer, after each state’s own deductions. Federal tax is identical wherever you live, so the difference between these rows is the whole difference.
What these Minnesota figures leave out
Recorded against Minnesota in the data rather than glossed over, because they change real bills.
- Minnesota's standard deduction is reduced for filers with federal AGI above $244,400, on a two-part formula that is not modelled.
- A 1% surtax applies to net investment income above $1 million; not modelled.
- The $5,300-per-dependent exemption, which itself phases out at high incomes, is not modelled.
