See what your pay stub should show — gross pay, each deduction line, net pay — for any salary, province, and pay frequency.
+ Advanced options (overtime, bonus)
Independent estimate based on 2026 CRA federal/provincial payroll formulas, Revenu Québec figures, and published CPP/CPP2/QPP/QPP2, EI and QPIP rates. Not affiliated with the Canada Revenue Agency or the Government of Canada. Actual payroll may differ based on your employer’s specific deductions, benefits, TD1 claim amounts, and other factors. This tool does not constitute tax or financial advice.
What’s on a Canadian pay stub
A typical Canadian pay stub lists your gross pay for the period, followed by each deduction as a separate line, then your net pay. The calculator above mirrors this structure:
- Gross pay for the period
- Federal tax
- Provincial tax
- CPP (and CPP2, if applicable)
- EI
- Net pay (what actually lands in your account)
Your actual pay stub may include additional lines this calculator doesn’t cover — employer-sponsored benefit deductions, union dues, or RRSP contributions — so treat this as an estimate of the government-mandated deductions, not a complete substitute for your employer’s stub.
Frequently asked questions
Can I generate an actual pay stub document with this?
No — this tool estimates the figures your pay stub should show, but doesn’t produce a formatted pay stub document. Your employer’s payroll system generates your official pay stub.
Why doesn’t my pay stub match this exactly?
Your actual stub may include benefit premiums, RRSP contributions, union dues, or a different TD1 claim amount — none of which this general calculator accounts for.
