Virginia Income Tax Overview
Virginia's individual income tax is a graduated tax with four brackets: 2% on the first $3,000 of taxable income, 3% up to $5,000, 5% up to $17,000, and 5.75% on everything above that. Because the top bracket kicks in at just $17,000, the 5.75% rate functions as the effective ceiling for nearly every working household, while the lower brackets shave only a modest amount off the first $17,000. The Department of Taxation administers the tax, and the standard deduction for a single filer is $8,750, which reduces the income the brackets are applied to before any tax is calculated.
The state tax stacks on top of federal income tax rather than replacing any of it; the IRS and Virginia compute their bills separately, each on its own schedule. Virginia starts from federal adjusted gross income, so the pre-tax moves that lower your federal taxable income, traditional 401(k) deferrals up to $24,500 and pre-tax health premiums, also shrink what Virginia taxes. Residents owe Virginia tax on all income, while nonresidents who earn wages in the Commonwealth owe tax only on the Virginia-source portion.
