Example Calculation

Let's calculate taxes for someone earning $2,500 biweekly as a single filer:

Annual Income = $2,500 × 26 = $65,000 Federal Tax = $65,000 × 15% = $9,750 Provincial Tax = $65,000 × 5.05% = $3,287.50 Total Tax = $9,750 + $3,287.50 = $13,037.50 Net Income = $65,000 - $13,037.50 = $51,962.50 Biweekly Net = $51,962.50 ÷ 26 = $2,000

In this example, the person would pay approximately $500 in taxes biweekly, leaving them with about $2,000 in take-home pay.
