Caveat: the Delaware 2026 PIT-RES return booklet was not retrieved. All calculation inputs are fixed, non-indexed amounts in statute and in a Division of Revenue page covering tax years 2014 and later.

The Wilmington 1.25 percent earned income tax is separate and is not in this figure.

Read this before you use the take-home figure. It is a single-filer estimate using the 2026 standard deduction. It leaves out credits, other deductions, local taxes, and retirement or health deductions. Your actual paycheck can differ, and for states without a verified 2026 table in this build, state tax is still to be added once its table is verified.
