  1. Taxes

  2. Net income: Money you get after all deductions. (take home pay) • Taxable income: income that can be taken by the government (federal or provincial)

  3. Overview: • -Sums of money taken off of your gross pay called deductions • -Net income (take home pay) is the amount remaining after deductions are taken from gross pay • -Some deductions like Canada Pension plan (CPP), Employment insurance premiums (EI) and income tax (IT) (provincial and federal) are required by Canadian Law. • -When an employee begins working at a job, they fill out a TDI form that identifies whether they are able to claim certain deductions that reduce their taxable income.

  4. CPP • Canada Pension Plan (CPP) or Quebec Pension Plan (QPP) contributions • Once you turn 18, and until you turn 70, you will make CPP or QPP contributions based on your pensionable employment income. Your employer is responsible for deducting these contributions and sending them to the CRA. If you worked in the province of Quebec, your employer will deduct QPP contributions instead of CPP contributions. The amount of your contribution (deducted each pay period) is calculated on an estimate of your pensionable earnings, including an exemption of $3,500 up to a maximum of $48,300. The result is then multiplied by the contribution rate. The contribution rate and the maximum amount that you can pay for the year may change from year to year.

  5. Employment Insurance (EI) premiums • There is no age limit for EI contributions. These are also a percentage of your insurable earnings (generally gross pay). The employee’s EI rate and the maximum premium you pay for the year may change from year to year, and the rate in Quebec may be different from other provinces.

  6. Income tax deductions • Your employer or payer will determine the income tax, CPP/QPP, and EI premiums to deduct based on your total claim amount on the Form TD1, Personal Tax Credits Return that you completed. There is no annual limit to the total amount of income tax your employer or payer can deduct in a year. If you expect your total income for the year to be less than the total claim amount on Form TD1, you can ask your employer or payer not to deduct tax from your earnings. If you have multiple employers throughout the year, it is important that you complete Form TD1 for each employer. If your employer(s) deducts the correct amount of income tax, CPP/QPP, and EI premiums, you may not have to pay any additional payments at the end of the year. If you do not complete a Form TD1 for each employer, you may have to pay taxes at the end of the year.

  7. How much tax will you pay? • Find a computer: • Using the job that you picked yesterday find out what tax bracket you will be in. You will have to use your yearly salary to find which bracket you are in. • How much tax will be taken off? • After you looked up your dream job, now choose a entry level job where you make minimum wage and see the difference between tax brackets. • What does low income mean?
