Why the Washington line is zero
Washington has no tax on wage income, so your state withholding line is zero. It does tax some capital gains, which is a separate matter from your paycheck.
What this does not include
- Dependants, children, and credits that have to be claimed on a return
- Post-tax deductions, such as health insurance premiums
- Anything on a W-4 beyond filing status
- Head of household and married filing separately, which are not modelled
