Federal Tax Calculation
The federal government also taxes your income. The 2019 federal tax brackets are:
| Taxable Income | Tax Rate |

The federal government also has a basic personal amount (BPA) that reduces your taxable income. For 2019, the BPA is $12,069 for single filers and $24,138 for married couples.
Provincial Tax Calculation
Ontario's provincial tax calculation is based on your taxable income after deductions. The provincial government also has a basic personal amount (BPA) that reduces your taxable income. For 2019, the BPA is $11,474 for single filers and $22,947 for married couples.
In addition to the progressive tax rates, Ontario has a surtax on income over $150,000. The surtax rate is 16.5% for single filers and 17.5% for married couples.
Worked Example
Let's calculate the tax for a single filer with a taxable income of $60,000.
- Federal tax calculation:
- $48,535 × 15% = $7,280.25
- ($60,000 - $48,535) × 20.5% = $2,233.35
- Total federal tax = $7,280.25 + $2,233.35 = $9,513.60
- Provincial tax calculation:
- $44,701 × 5.05% = $2,257.05
- ($60,000 - $44,701) × 9.15% = $1,305.99
- Total provincial tax = $2,257.05 + $1,305.99 = $3,563.04
- Total tax payable = $9,513.60 + $3,563.04 = $13,076.64
This example shows how progressive taxation works - higher income levels are taxed at higher rates.
