Example Calculation
Let's calculate the tax for a single filer with $60,000 in taxable income:
- $45,142 × 5.05% = $2,264.27
- ($60,000 - $45,142) × 9.15% = $1,291.39
- Total tax = $2,264.27 + $1,291.39 = $3,555.66
So, a single filer with $60,000 in taxable income would owe approximately $3,555.66 in Ontario income tax for 2022.
