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.
