Method
How this take-home pay calculator works
The calculator starts by converting the income you enter into an estimated annual gross income. Annual salary is used directly, while monthly, bi-weekly, weekly, and hourly entries are normalized into yearly income for a consistent estimate.
It then subtracts estimated federal income tax, provincial income tax, CPP contribution, EI premium, optional RRSP contribution, and any additional deduction you enter. The remaining amount is shown as estimated annual, monthly, bi-weekly, and weekly take-home pay.
Deductions
What deductions are included?
- Federal income tax: estimated using federal bracket settings.
- Provincial income tax: estimated from the selected province configuration.
- CPP contribution: estimated Canada Pension Plan payroll contribution.
- EI premium: estimated Employment Insurance payroll premium.
- Optional RRSP contribution: entered as an amount or percentage.
- Additional deductions: optional annual deductions you want to include.
Accuracy
Why your actual paycheque may be different
Your real payroll deductions can vary because employers may include health or dental benefits, pension plans, taxable benefits, union dues, bonuses, commissions, vacation pay, tax credits, and year-to-date payroll settings.
Use this calculator as a planning estimate and compare important numbers with CRA resources, provincial tax information, your employer's payroll department, or a qualified professional.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
What is take-home pay?
Take-home pay is the money you keep from gross income after estimated income tax, CPP, EI, and the optional deductions you enter.
Is this calculator exact?
No. It is designed for planning and comparison only. Your employer payroll system may use additional rules, credits, benefits, deductions, and rounding.
Does this calculator include CPP and EI?
Yes. The estimate includes Canada Pension Plan contributions and Employment Insurance premiums using the calculator configuration for the selected tax year.
Does this calculator include RRSP contributions?
Yes. You can enter an RRSP contribution as a dollar amount or percentage. The calculator treats it as a high-level taxable income reduction for estimation.
Why is my actual paycheque different from the estimate?
Actual payroll can differ because of employer benefits, pension plans, taxable benefits, union dues, bonuses, tax credits, province-specific rules, payroll timing, and year-to-date settings.
Which provinces are supported?
NetPay Canada currently supports Ontario, Manitoba, Alberta, and British Columbia.
How often are tax values updated?
Tax brackets, CPP settings, EI settings, and provincial values are stored separately so they can be reviewed and updated when official yearly values are available.
