How This Calculator Works
Calculation methodology and assumptions
Michigan tax in these results: a flat 4.25% of gross pay, with no Michigan deduction, exemption or credit subtracted. Federal income tax (single filer, 2026), 6.2% Social Security and 1.45% Medicare apply to the same annual gross; the §225 overtime-premium deduction is not applied.
Key State Information
Michigan overtime facts: Minimum wage $13.73/hr | Tipped cash wage before tips $5.49/hr | State tax up to 4.25% | Median household income $72,389.
Example Calculation
A Michigan worker earning the $20.00/hr default works 10 overtime hours every week: $41,600 of base pay plus $15,600 of overtime (520 hours × $20.00 × 1.5), $57,200 a year.
Michigan tax on the overtime: Michigan's flat rate applies to every dollar, so 4.25% × $15,600 = $663 (4.25% of it, against 4.25% of base pay). Federal income tax adds $1,872 and FICA $1,193.
Result: You keep $11,871 of the $15,600 (76.1%).

Our editorial standardsFrequently Asked Questions
What is the overtime rate in Michigan?
At least $20.60/hr at Michigan's $13.73 wage floor: 1.5 × the regular rate for an FLSA-covered, non-exempt worker's hours over 40 in a workweek. Source of the $13.73/hr floor: Michigan minimum wage law, via U.S. DOL WHD Consolidated State Minimum Wage Table. Michigan's minimum wage is scheduled to rise to $15.00/hr on January 1, 2027 (DOL WHD, rev. 2026-07-01). At that rate the overtime floor becomes $22.50/hr.
Is overtime taxed differently in Michigan?
No separate overtime rate applies: overtime is wages, taxed with the rest of your pay. Michigan takes its flat 4.25% of overtime like any other pay. For 2025-2028, eligible workers can deduct the overtime premium on their federal return (26 U.S.C. §225); the No Tax on Overtime Deduction Calculator estimates it.
