2026 rates. CPP stops once you've paid the yearly maximum ($4,230, plus CPP2 up to $416) and EI at $1,123, so late-year cheques are often bigger. Benefits, union dues and pension plans on your stub are not included.

## How the take-home pay calculator works

Enter your salary (or hourly wage and hours), your province and how often you're paid. The calculator works out a full year of income tax, CPP and CPP2, and EI (QPP, EI and QPIP in Quebec) at 2026 rates and splits the result by pay period.

Add a bonus to see it in your annual figures, and any RRSP contributions taken off your pay through a group plan, which lower your tax.

Real paycheques vary through the year: once you hit the yearly CPP and EI maximums, those deductions stop, so cheques late in the year are often bigger. Benefits, pension plans and union dues on your stub aren't included.

## Good to know

-   Bi-weekly means 26 pays a year, so two months a year have three paydays; semi-monthly is always 24.
-   Your TD1 forms tell your employer which credits to apply; claiming more than you qualify for means a bill at tax time.
-   Group RRSP contributions through payroll get the tax break right away instead of waiting for a refund.

## Frequently asked questions

How much is $100,000 after tax in Ontario?

About $74,206 a year in 2026, or $2,854 every two weeks, after income tax, CPP and EI with no other deductions.

Why is my paycheque bigger at the end of the year?

CPP and EI stop once you've paid the yearly maximum, often by the fall for higher earners, so the last few cheques have smaller deductions.

Does this include RRSP or benefit deductions?

It includes RRSP contributions you enter. Health benefits, pension plan contributions and union dues differ by employer and aren't included.
