Ontario income tax calculator

Ontario is pre-selected below; you can switch provinces anytime. Year-end CPP (incl. CPP2) on pensionable employment (including RSU value), EI on salary and cash bonus only, plus federal and Ontario provincial tax (BPA credits; simplified rules — not a full T1). RSU CPP is incremental vs salary + bonus; bonus and RSU tax use withholding proxies.

Where you're taxed · Scenario 1

Pick your country and province or territory. All Canadian jurisdictions use the same engine (simplified provincial rules); U.S. states are listed for later.

True tax vs withheld · filing season

True income tax (all T4 income)

$71,179

Est. Tax withheld

$73,262

Likely refund +$2,083

True tax is year-end liability including your payroll RRSP deduction (line 20800–style). Employer RRSP deposits are not added separately—common payroll nets the taxable benefit with an offsetting RRSP deduction on the same stub. Estimated withheld uses salary+bonus tax without that RRSP reduction—so payroll RRSP is a common refund driver when withholding lags the deduction—plus the CRA bonus step-up and RSU marginal proxy. The gap is the filing-season adjustment (refund if negative). Positive "owing" means estimated withholding is still below modelled year-end tax (possible balance due at filing).
