New for 2026: the lowest federal tax rate is now 14%, down from an effective 14.5% in 2025. British Columbia, Newfoundland and Labrador and Prince Edward Island all changed their rates part-way through the year — which is why your August pay stub may not match January.

Common questions
How accurate is this calculator?
Every rate comes from the CRA's published 2026 tables and Revenu Québec's 2026 parameters, and the engine is validated against the CRA's own Payroll Deductions Online Calculator. It assumes a single employee claiming the basic personal amount with no other income or credits.
Does it include CPP2?
Yes. CPP2 is the second additional contribution on earnings between the two pensionable-earnings ceilings, introduced in 2024. It is shown as its own line, and it is treated as a deduction from taxable income rather than a tax credit — which is how the CRA treats it.
Does it handle Quebec properly?
Yes. Quebec is modelled as its own system: QPP instead of CPP, QPIP premiums, the lower Quebec EI rate, the deduction for workers, Quebec’s own brackets, and the 16.5% federal abatement.
Sources: Canada Revenue Agency — T4127 Payroll Deductions Formulas (122nd and 123rd editions, 2026) and the published 2026 federal, provincial and territorial rate tables; Revenu Québec — 2026 income tax rates and the 2026 source-deduction parameters. Rates verified 9 August 2026.
