Frequently Asked Questions

How accurate is this Canada take-home salary calculator?

This calculator uses a simplified combined federal and provincial tax model for rough estimates. It does not represent official CRA (Canada Revenue Agency) calculations and may not account for all deductions, credits, or province-specific rules. For accurate tax calculations, consult with a tax professional or use official CRA tools.

What is CPP and how is it calculated?

CPP (Canada Pension Plan) is a mandatory contribution for most employees. For 2024, the CPP rate is 5.95% on earnings up to $68,500 (the maximum pensionable earnings). Both you and your employer contribute, but this calculator only shows your portion.

What is EI and how is it calculated?

EI (Employment Insurance) provides temporary income support to unemployed workers. For 2024, the EI rate is 1.63% on earnings up to $63,100 (the maximum insurable earnings). Like CPP, both you and your employer contribute.

How do provincial tax rates differ?

Each Canadian province has different provincial tax rates that are combined with federal rates. Ontario and British Columbia have progressive tax systems, while some provinces use flat rates. This calculator uses simplified combined rates - actual rates may vary.

Does this calculator include RRSP contributions?

No, this calculator does not include RRSP (Registered Retirement Savings Plan) contributions or other voluntary deductions. Your actual take-home pay may be different if you contribute to an RRSP or have other deductions.
