I built TravelNurseTax because every tax calculator I could find assumed you were a W-2 employee in a single state - the one thing travel nurses never are. The goal is a set of free tools that model the split-package, multi-state reality of travel nursing honestly, instead of pretending it doesn't exist.
I'm the developer behind the tools, not a CPA. Every calculation is built from published sources - planning and estimation; they are not tax advice. For anything complex - an unclear tax home, a large contract, or filing in three or more states - I point nurses to a travel-nurse-specialist CPA.
IRS federal income tax brackets, Social Security thresholds, and FY2026 GSA CONUS references. State rates remain simplified and are clearly labeled. The tools are designed for planning and estimation; they are not tax advice. For complex facts, I point nurses to a credentialed tax professional.

If you find a calculation that looks wrong or a rate that's gone out of date, I want to hear about it - corrections from working nurses are how these tools stay accurate.
