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 when: your TD1 claims a spouse, dependants or tuition; you have bonuses, overtime or commission (taxed with the bonus method); the employer withholds more or less because CPP and EI stop once the maximums are reached; you have taxable benefits (group life, parking) or a second job; or your province changed rates mid-year.
Federal tax. Taxable income $59,435.00 = $60,000.00 gross − $565.00 enhanced CPP. Tax through the brackets $8,380.18; credits at 14% on Basic personal amount $16,452.00, Canada employment amount $1,501.00, CPP base contributions $2,796.75, EI premiums $978.00 = $3,041.89 → $5,338.29.
Nunavut tax. Taxable income $59,435.00; tax through the brackets $2,486.42; credits at 4.00% = $937.35 → $1,549.07.
