How Are Bonuses Taxed in Tennessee?

In Tennessee, bonuses are classified as supplemental wages by the IRS. Federal taxes are calculated using the aggregate method — your bonus is added to your annual salary to determine your marginal tax bracket, which is more accurate than the flat 22% withholding method.

Tennessee has no state income tax — one of only 9 states with this benefit. Your bonus is only subject to federal income tax and FICA (Social Security + Medicare).

2026 Federal Bonus Tax Rates

The IRS optional flat supplemental withholding rate for 2026 is 22% for bonuses under $1 million. However, using the aggregate method (as this calculator does), your effective federal rate depends on your total income and filing status — it may be higher or lower than 22%.
