Why your pay stub may differ, and the math
This is the yearly total under the CRA's payroll formulas (T4127) for a single employee with only the basic claim on the TD1, spread evenly. Real stubs differ if your TD1 claims a spouse, dependants or tuition. They also differ if you get bonuses, overtime or commission (taxed with the bonus method), if CPP and EI stop once you hit the maximums, if you have taxable benefits (group life, parking) or a second job, or if your province changed rates mid-year.

How New Brunswick income tax works in 2026
New Brunswick income tax uses the same taxable income as federal tax. The province applies its own brackets, 9.40% on the first $52,333, 14.00% to $104,666, 16.00% to $193,861, 19.50% above $193,861. It then subtracts non-refundable credits at 9.40% for the basic personal amount of $13,664, base CPP contributions and EI premiums.
Federal tax for 2026 starts at 14% with a basic personal amount of $16,452. See the main take-home pay calculator for the full explanation, a worked example and the assumptions.
Low-income tax reduction is claimed on the tax return, not through payroll, and is not modelled. The 2026 low-income tax reduction thresholds had not been published by the province at verification, so the reduction is not modelled at filing either.
