How the estimate works

The calculator first converts your annual salary or hourly work schedule to gross annual income. It then estimates federal and provincial or territorial income tax, CPP/QPP, CPP2/QPP2, EI and applicable Quebec or Ontario deductions.

Results show annual, monthly, biweekly and weekly averages. They are useful for comparing job offers and provinces, but are not a payroll statement or tax filing calculation.

Frequently asked questions

How much of my salary will I take home after tax?

Enter your annual salary or hourly wage and select your province or territory. This free calculator estimates income tax, CPP/QPP and EI, then shows your annual, monthly, biweekly and weekly take-home pay. No sign-up is required.

Can I use this as a biweekly paycheque calculator?

Yes. For an annual salary, biweekly pay is estimated annual take-home pay divided by 26, and weekly pay is divided by 52. In hourly mode, these averages use your selected weeks worked instead. Monthly pay always divides the annual estimate by 12. These are averages, not exact payroll deposits; pay dates, benefits and personal tax credits can change an individual paycheque.

How accurate is this Canada salary calculator?

It provides an annual estimate for a regular T4 employee using the site's supported 2026 federal, provincial and territorial tax parameters. Payroll deposits and your final tax return can differ.

Does it support hourly wages?

Yes. Enter an hourly wage, hours per week and weeks worked per year. The calculator converts that schedule to annual gross income before estimating deductions.

Which provinces and territories are included?

All 10 provinces and three territories are available. Quebec uses QPP and QPIP rules, while Ontario estimates the Ontario Health Premium.

Are CPP and EI included?

Yes. The estimate includes supported CPP or QPP, second additional CPP or QPP, EI, applicable QPIP and income taxes.
