FAQ
Do states add their own penalty?
States do not add a 10% penalty, but most tax 401(k) withdrawals as ordinary income on top of federal tax. In a state with a 10% income tax, a withdrawal is hit twice — by the IRS penalty and by state income tax.
Which states have no income tax on 401(k) withdrawals?
States with no state income tax include Texas, Florida, Nevada, Washington, and a few others. There you owe only the 10% federal penalty (if under 59½) and federal income tax — no state layer.
Why does my state matter for the calculator?
Because your net take-home depends on the combined bite. Entering your state rate shows the real after-tax amount instead of just the federal picture.
