How Oklahoma taxes your paycheck
HB 2764 (2025) restructured Oklahoma's six brackets (0.25%-4.75%) into a 0% band plus three rates of 2.5%, 3.5% and 4.5% starting with tax year 2026, cutting the top rate from 4.75% to 4.5%. Married filing jointly, head of household and qualifying surviving spouse share the wider joint schedule; single and married filing separately use the single schedule. The standard deduction ($6,350 / $12,700 / $9,350) and $1,000 per-person exemption are fixed statutory amounts, and the Oklahoma standard deduction may be taken only by filers who took the federal standard deduction. The law also allows a further 0.25-point cut across all brackets in later years if revenue conditions certified by the State Board of Equalization are met.
