2013 Tax Comparisons Employment Income

Combined federal/provincial income taxes payable (refundable) on employment income by province/territory

Taxes are net of Working Income Tax Benefit (WITB), and any low income tax reductions.
WITB rates for 2013 are confirmed to CRA
CPP/QPP contributions and EI premiums are included in taxes.
Negative amounts are refundable taxes paid to the taxpayer.
QC provincial tax is net of refundable federal tax abatement.
QC provincial tax includes progressive health contribution and prescription drug premiums (for both spouses in married person case).
ON provincial tax includes Ontario Health Premium.
BC provincial tax includes BC MSP premiums, at 2014 rates, because 2014 payments are based on 2013 income.
Taxes reflect 2013 income tax rates as known at Dec 31, 2013. Results for QC differ slightly due to working income tax benefit and prescription drug premiums.
