How does this income tax calculator work?
It follows the same steps as a tax return. It starts with your income, takes off your RRSP and other deductions and the part of CPP that is a deduction, and finds your taxable income. It then applies the federal brackets and the Yukon brackets, subtracts the basic credits, and adds CPP and EI to show what is left for you.
What it includes
- Federal and Yukon income tax on the 2026 brackets
- The basic personal amount, the Canada employment amount, and the CPP and EI credits
- CPP (and CPP2) or QPP, EI or QPIP
- RRSP and other deductions, and employee or self-employed income
What it leaves out
- Dividends, capital gains, rental income and foreign income
- Tuition, medical, donation, spouse and dependant credits
- The Canada Workers Benefit and other benefits
- Quebec-only deductions and credits
- Yukon's basic personal amount follows the federal amount (16,452 dollars, reduced for high incomes) and it also gives a Canada employment credit.
What are the 2026 federal and Yukon tax brackets?
Canada taxes income in brackets: each rate applies only to the slice of income inside that bracket, not to all of it.
Federal
| Taxable income | Rate |
|---|---|
| First $58,523 | 14% |
| $58,523 to $117,045 | 20.5% |
| $117,045 to $181,440 | 26% |
| $181,440 to $258,482 | 29% |
| Over $258,482 | 33% |
Yukon
| Taxable income | Rate |
|---|---|
| First $58,523 | 6.4% |
| $58,523 to $117,045 | 9% |
| $117,045 to $181,440 | 10.9% |
| $181,440 to $500,000 | 12.8% |
| Over $500,000 | 15% |
How much income tax do you pay in Yukon at different salaries?
These examples are for an employee in Yukon with no deductions, worked out with the same rules as the calculator above.
| Salary | Income tax | CPP and EI | Take-home pay | Average rate | Marginal rate |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| $40,000 | $3,922 | $2,824 | $33,255 | 16.9% | 18.9% |
| $60,000 | $7,775 | $4,340 | $47,885 | 20.2% | 27.9% |
| $80,000 | $13,391 | $5,570 | $61,039 | 23.7% | 28.3% |
| $100,000 | $19,232 | $5,770 | $74,998 | 25% | 29.5% |
| $150,000 | $36,338 | $5,770 | $107,893 | 28.1% | 36.9% |
What is the difference between employee and self-employed tax?
An employee pays half of CPP and all of EI through payroll. If you are self-employed you pay both halves of CPP on your net business income, you do not pay EI unless you opted in, and you deduct your business expenses before tax. Choose “Self-employed” in the calculator to see the difference.
Frequently asked questions
Yukon charges 6.4% on the first 58,523 dollars of taxable income and rises through 5 brackets to 15% above 500,000 dollars. Federal tax is added on top. The full tables are on this page.
It is the same as the federal amount (16,452 dollars, reduced for higher incomes). It is the amount of income you can earn before Yukon income tax applies to it, and the calculator applies it as a credit at the lowest Yukon rate.
Yukon uses the federal basic personal amount and adds its own credit for employment income. The calculator applies both at the lowest Yukon rate.
It is an estimate. It uses the same federal and provincial rates, thresholds and personal amounts the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) publishes for payroll deductions in 2026, plus CPP and EI. It does not know your whole tax return, so credits and income it does not ask about (dividends, capital gains, tuition, medical expenses, the Canada Workers Benefit) can change the result. Your notice of assessment from the CRA is always the final figure.
Enter your yearly employment income, choose your province or territory and read the take-home figure. It is your income minus federal tax, provincial tax, CPP and EI. Use the switch above the result to see it per month, every two weeks or per week.
Your average rate is all your tax and contributions divided by your income. Your marginal rate is the tax on your next dollar of income, which is higher because Canada taxes income in brackets. The calculator shows both, plus how much of your next 1,000 dollars you would keep after tax and contributions.
Each level taxes your taxable income in brackets. The federal rates for 2026 run from 14% on the first 58,523 dollars up to 33% above 258,482 dollars, and every province and territory has its own brackets. Basic credits, such as the basic personal amount, then reduce the tax.
CPP is 5.95% of earnings between 3,500 and 74,600 dollars (up to 4,230.45 dollars), plus 4% on earnings between 74,600 and 85,000 dollars (CPP2, up to 416.00 dollars). EI is 1.63% of earnings up to 68,900 dollars (up to 1,123.07 dollars). Quebec has its own plans, QPP and QPIP.
You pay both the employee and the employer half of CPP, you do not pay EI unless you opted in, and you tax your net business income (revenue minus business expenses). Choose the self-employed option and enter your gross revenue and your business expenses.
Yes. Enter your RRSP and other deductions and they reduce your taxable income. The calculator does not check your contribution room (the 2026 RRSP limit is up to 33,810 dollars, or 18% of your earned income if less), so confirm your room on your CRA notice of assessment.
Add the income tax you have already paid (T4 box 22 for employees, or your instalments if you are self-employed) in the optional box. The calculator compares it with the estimated tax and shows a refund or a balance owing.
All 13. Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Northwest Territories, Nunavut, Ontario, Prince Edward Island, Saskatchewan and Yukon use figures we checked against the CRA's tables. Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia and Quebec are marked as not fully verified on the calculator until we can confirm every detail.
No. The calculator works on your own device, so nothing you type is saved or sent to us.
