## What is GS Salary?

GS Pay Calculator is the fastest offline tool for U.S. federal employees and USAJOBS applicants to calculate General Schedule (GS) salary, locality pay, within-grade increases (WGI), and promotion step placement using official 2026 OPM pay tables. No internet required. No data collected. Ever.

100% Private. 100% Offline. Everything stays on your device. No account, no login, no analytics, no tracking. Your grade, step, locality, and every scenario you run are never shared — not with us, not with anyone. GS Pay Calculator is the only federal salary tool built with privacy as a hard requirement, not a policy.

2026 OPM General Schedule Pay Tables All 57 locality pay areas. Base pay for GS-1 through GS-15, Steps 1–10. Rates effective January 11, 2026, per Executive Order 14368. Executive Level IV pay cap ($197,200) applied automatically where applicable.

GS Salary Calculator Enter your grade, step, and locality pay area and instantly see your annual, monthly, biweekly, and hourly federal salary. Understand exactly how locality pay adjusts your OPM base pay and whether the pay cap affects your position.

Locality Pay Comparison Compare two GS salary scenarios side by side — same grade across two cities, or two grades in the same locality. See the difference annually, monthly, and hourly with a clear breakdown of which scenario pays more and by how much.

Within-Grade Increase (WGI) Timeline Enter your current step start date and see your full step progression from your current step to Step 10. Projected WGI dates follow official OPM waiting periods: 52 weeks for Steps 1–3, 104 weeks for Steps 4–6, and 156 weeks for Steps 7–9. See your total earnings gain and years to maximum step.

GS Promotion Calculator Evaluating a USAJOBS promotion opportunity? Enter your current GS grade and step, select a target grade, and instantly calculate your new step placement using the OPM two-step jump rule (5 CFR 531.214). See your exact pay increase annually, monthly, biweekly, and hourly before you accept the offer.

Designed for Federal Employees No subscriptions. No ads. No upsells. No internet connection required. Built for the specific needs of current federal employees, GS applicants, HR professionals, and anyone navigating the General Schedule pay system.

Salary figures are based on official OPM data and are for informational purposes only. Results may not reflect individual agency policies, appointment types, union agreements, or pay adjustments. Consult your agency HR or payroll office for official figures. This app is not affiliated with or endorsed by the U.S. federal government or OPM.
