How the Ontario Salary Tax Calculator Works
The Ontario salary tax calculator estimates your tax liability based on your annual salary and tax deductions. It uses the 2022 Ontario tax rates and brackets to calculate federal and provincial taxes, as well as Canada Pension Plan (CPP) and Employment Insurance (EI) contributions.
Formula Used
Net Income = Gross Salary - (Federal Tax + Provincial Tax + CPP + EI)
Where:

- Provincial Tax is calculated using Ontario's progressive tax brackets
- CPP is 5.95% of your salary (up to the maximum contribution limit)
- EI is 1.66% of your salary (up to the maximum contribution limit)
The calculator provides a breakdown of your taxes and deductions, helping you understand how much you'll pay in taxes and how much you'll take home.
