Summary
If you make $29,948 a year living in the region of Nunavut, Canada, you will be taxed $7,101. That means that your net pay will be $22,847 per year, or $1,904 per month. Your average tax rate is 23.7% and your marginal tax rate is 24.9%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
