(The above table/column headings established by IRS.)

1Earned income amounts that fall between the income brackets shown in this table (e.g., $24,999.45, $49,999.75) should be rounded to the nearest dollar to determine the marginal tax rate to be used in calculating the RIT allowance.

2If the earned income amount is less than the lowest income bracket shown in this table, the employing agency shall establish an appropriate marginal tax rate as provided in §302-17.8(e)(2)(ii).

3If two or more marginal tax rates of a State overlap an income bracket shown in this table, then the highest of the two or more State marginal tax rates is shown for that entire income bracket. For more specific information, see the 2008 State Tax Handbook, pp. 259-274, CCH, Inc., http://tax.cchgroup.com/Books/default#S.

4This is an estimate. For earnings over $100,000, and for filing statuses other than those above, please consult actual tax tables. See 2008 State Tax Handbook, pp. 259-274, CCH, Inc., http://tax.cchgroup.com/Books/default#S.

5This rate applies only to those individuals certifying that they will file under a single or married filing separately status within the states where they will pay income taxes.

6The income tax rate for Rhode Island is 25 percent of Federal income tax rates, including capital gains rates and any another other special rates for other types of income. Rates shown as a percent of Federal income tax liability must be converted to a percent of income as provided in §302-17.8(e)(2)(iii). Effective for the 2007 tax year, taxpayers may elect to compute income tax liability based on a graduated rate schedule or an alternative flat tax equal to 7.5%.
