How This Calculator Works
Calculation methodology and assumptions
Minnesota tax in these results: 4 brackets (table below) walked over gross pay, with no Minnesota 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
Minnesota overtime facts: Minimum wage $11.41/hr | Tipped cash wage before tips $11.41/hr | State tax up to 9.85% | Median household income $87,117.
Example Calculation
A Minnesota 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.
Minnesota tax on the overtime: the overtime sits between $41,600 and $57,200 of yearly pay, all inside Minnesota's 6.8% bracket, so 6.8% × $15,600 = $1,061 (6.80% of it, against 5.75% of base pay). Federal income tax adds $1,872 and FICA $1,193.
Result: You keep $11,474 of the $15,600 (73.6%).

Federal overtime rules
Minnesota allows no tip credit, so tipped workers are paid the full $11.41/hr before tips and at least 1.5 × that for overtime hours.

Our editorial standardsFrequently Asked Questions
What is the overtime rate in Minnesota?
At least $17.12/hr at Minnesota's $11.41 wage floor: 1.5 × the regular rate for an FLSA-covered, non-exempt worker's hours over 40 in a workweek. Source of the $11.41/hr floor: Minnesota minimum wage law, via U.S. DOL WHD Consolidated State Minimum Wage Table.
Is overtime taxed differently in Minnesota?
No separate overtime rate applies: overtime is wages, taxed with the rest of your pay. Because Minnesota's brackets are progressive, overtime is taxed at the highest Minnesota bracket your yearly pay reaches (6.8% at this page's default). 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.
