Calculate your Ontario income tax, Canada Pension Plan (CPP), and Employment Insurance (EI) deductions with our free online calculator. This tool helps you understand how much you'll pay in taxes and deductions based on your income.
How the Ontario Income Tax Calculator Works
The Ontario income tax calculator determines your provincial tax liability based on your annual income. The calculation follows Ontario's progressive tax system, where different tax rates apply to different income brackets.
Formula Used
Ontario income tax = (Income × Tax rate) - Tax credits
Where tax rate is determined by your income bracket and tax credits are based on your situation.
To use the calculator, simply enter your annual income and select your filing status. The calculator will then compute your estimated provincial tax, CPP contributions, and EI premiums.
Understanding CPP and EI Deductions
The Canada Pension Plan (CPP) and Employment Insurance (EI) are mandatory deductions from your paycheck. These contributions fund important social programs.
Key Points
- CPP is a retirement savings program
- EI provides temporary income support to workers
- Both deductions are based on your earnings
Your CPP contribution rate is 5.95% of your earnings up to the maximum contribution base. EI premiums are calculated based on your insurable earnings.

Example Calculation
Let's calculate the taxes for someone earning $60,000 annually:
- Determine the applicable tax bracket: $45,142.01 - $90,287 (9.15%)
- Calculate taxable income: $60,000 - $45,142 = $14,858
- Compute provincial tax: $14,858 × 9.15% = $1,360.36
- Calculate CPP: $60,000 × 5.95% = $3,570
- Calculate EI: $60,000 × 1.66% = $996
The total deductions would be approximately $5,926.36.
