License and tax basics
Wisconsin is in the Nurse Licensure Compact, so a multistate license from another compact state covers work in Madison. Wisconsin taxes wage income, and rates and rules change, so use the current rate from your state tax agency. Federal income tax, Social Security and Medicare apply on top. If you work here on a travel assignment, your tax home decides whether housing and meals stipends are tax-free, and that is a question for your tax professional. Put your own rates into the take-home pay calculator and the travel nurse pay calculator.
