| Deduction | Amount | How it is treated |
|---|---|---|
| CPP — base portion | $3,519 | Non-refundable tax credit |
| CPP — enhanced portion | $711 | Deduction from taxable income |
| CPP2 (second additional) | $416 | Deduction from taxable income |
| Employment Insurance | $1,123 | Non-refundable tax credit |
| Total contributions | $5,770 |
