2019 Ontario Tax Brackets

The 2019 Ontario tax rates and brackets are as follows:

Taxable Income Ontario Tax Rate Federal Tax Rate
$0 - $44,701 5.05% 15%
$44,702 - $89,404 9.15% 20.5%
$89,405 - $150,000 11.16% 26%
$150,001 - $220,000 12.16% 29%
$220,001+ 13.16% 33%

Note that these rates apply to the portion of income that falls within each bracket. The calculator applies these rates progressively to your total taxable income.

How the Calculation Works

The calculator uses the following formula to determine your tax liability:

Total Tax = Ontario Tax + Federal Tax

Where:

  • Ontario Tax is calculated based on the Ontario tax brackets
  • Federal Tax is calculated based on the federal tax brackets

The calculator applies the tax rates progressively to your taxable income. For example, if your income is $50,000:

  1. $44,701 is taxed at 5.05% (Ontario) and 15% (Federal)
  2. The remaining $5,299 is taxed at 9.15% (Ontario) and 20.5% (Federal)

The calculator also accounts for the Ontario Health Premium, which is an additional 1.5% of your taxable income for the first $220,000.

Worked Example

Let's calculate the tax for a single filer with $50,000 in taxable income:

Income Range Ontario Rate Federal Rate Taxable Amount Ontario Tax Federal Tax
$0 - $44,701 5.05% 15% $44,701 $2,262.75 $6,705.15
$44,702 - $50,000 9.15% 20.5% $5,299 $486.25 $1,093.95
Total: $2,749.00 $7,899.10
Ontario Health Premium (1.5%): $750.00
Total Tax: $11,349.10

For this example, the total tax liability would be $11,349.10, which includes both provincial and federal taxes plus the Ontario Health Premium.
