<prompt> Human: How does overtime get taxed? OregonFor example, Im wondering, if i work 50 hours a week at 20hr10 hours would be 30hr, how does that compare to someone working 40 hrsweek at 27hr?  <response>: It gets taxed the same as any other money. It gets withheld differently because payroll systems are stupid and treat it as an increase in income. But you get the difference back in your tax refund.
