Real tax rate
35.0%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 33% tax rate now rises to 35.0%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 2% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $153,500 a year living in the region of Alberta, Canada, you will be taxed $50,625. That means that your net pay will be $102,875 per year, or $8,573 per month.
