Virginia QBI Deduction Calculator (2026)

Section 199A federal 20% deduction with Virginia state-conformity context. Handles SSTB phase-out for health, law, accounting, consulting, financial services.

The federal Qualified Business Income (QBI) deduction under Section 199A lets pass-through LLC owners deduct up to 20% of qualified business income on the federal return. Virginia conforms to federal AGI, so the federal QBI deduction flows through to reduce Virginia taxable income. That means a high-income Virginia LLC owner gets the QBI deduction at both federal and state levels. The calculator below estimates your federal QBI deduction including SSTB phase-out for service-trade owners (health, law, accounting, consulting).

See the Virginia LLC tax calculator for end-to-end tax modeling, or read the LLC taxation guide.
