How Ontario Income Tax Works
Ontario uses a progressive tax system, meaning higher income levels are taxed at higher rates. The tax is calculated by applying each tax rate to the portion of your income that falls within that bracket.
For example, if your taxable income is $50,000, the first $44,701 is taxed at 5.05%, and the remaining $5,299 is taxed at 9.15%. The total tax would be calculated as follows:
Tax Calculation Formula
Tax = (First Bracket Amount × First Bracket Rate) + (Second Bracket Amount × Second Bracket Rate) + ...
The Ontario government also collects the Harmonized Sales Tax (HST) on most goods and services, which is not included in this calculation.
Worked Example
Let's calculate the Ontario provincial income tax for someone with a taxable income of $60,000 in 2019.
- First $44,701 is taxed at 5.05%: $44,701 × 0.0505 = $2,264.95
- Next $15,299 (from $44,702 to $60,000) is taxed at 9.15%: $15,299 × 0.0915 = $1,399.95
- Total tax: $2,264.95 + $1,399.95 = $3,664.90
This example shows how the progressive tax system works in Ontario. Higher income levels are taxed at higher rates, which is reflected in the total tax owed.
