Common questions
Idaho paycheck FAQ
Which Idaho withholding table is used?
The estimate uses the Idaho percentage-computation table revised July 31, 2026. Idaho directs employers to use it going forward without adjusting earlier 2026 paychecks.
Do Idaho allowances reduce current withholding?
No. The Idaho Child Tax Credit sunset, so the current official allowance amount is zero even when an ID W-4 lists allowances.
Does Idaho withholding round each paycheck?
Yes. The official percentage method directs employers to round the result to the nearest whole dollar.
