Real tax rate
10.9%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 9% tax rate now rises to 10.9%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 1.9% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $1,508 a year living in the region of Nunavut, Canada, you will be taxed $135. That means that your net pay will be $1,373 per year, or $114 per month. Your average tax rate is 9.0% and your marginal tax rate is 15.7%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of $100 in your salary will be taxed $15.74, hence, your net pay will only increase by $84.26.
