Data notes for North Dakota
Starts from federal taxable income (federal AGI minus the FEDERAL standard deduction: 2026 $16,100 / $32,200 / $24,150 per IRS), so standard_deduction=0 here. 2026 brackets (0% / 1.95% / 2.5%, HB 1158 of 2023 structure) are explicit in PE from the official 2026 Form ND-1ES rate schedule. Marriage-penalty credit requires both spouses to have qualified income, so it never applies to a one-earner MFJ couple and is omitted. Not web-verified (search budget exhausted), but the PE value is sourced from the state's 2026 ND-1ES. No employee payroll contributions; no local income tax.
