Minnesota vs Federal Tax: What's Different
Your Minnesota state tax is calculated on state taxable income (gross minus Minnesota's standard deduction of $14,575). Federal tax uses a $15,000 standard deduction (single, 2026). The rates and brackets are independent — state tax is not a deduction from federal tax.
