Nevada self-employment tax, explained
Nevada has no state income tax, so a Nevada-based freelancer's quarterly estimated payments are federal-only, with no state voucher to track.
Self-employment (SE) tax is the same everywhere — 15.3% of 92.35% of your net profit, split between Social Security (12.4%, up to the annual wage base) and Medicare (2.9%, uncapped). What changes by state is the income tax layer on top: Nevada has no state income tax, applied to your taxable income after federal deductions. For filing status, Nevada's tax doesn't apply at all, regardless of filing status, since the state has no personal income tax.

Frequently asked questions
What is the Nevada state income tax rate for 1099 income?
Nevada has no state income tax. Its tax doesn't apply at all, regardless of filing status, since the state has no personal income tax. See the "Nevada self-employment tax, explained" section above for how it applies to your specific numbers.
How is self-employment tax calculated?
Self-employment tax is 15.3% of your net self-employment earnings (92.35% of net profit): 12.4% Social Security up to the annual wage base, plus 2.9% Medicare on all net earnings. If your combined income exceeds the Additional Medicare Tax threshold for your filing status, an extra 0.9% applies above that threshold.
What's the difference between self-employment tax and income tax?
Self-employment tax funds Social Security and Medicare — it's the self-employed equivalent of the payroll taxes an employer would otherwise split with you. Federal (and state) income tax is separate, calculated on your taxable income after deductions like the standard deduction and the QBI deduction.
