Summary
If you make $38,168 a year living in the region of Nunavut, Canada, you will be taxed $9,148. That means that your net pay will be $29,020 per year, or $2,418 per month. Your average tax rate is 24.0% and your marginal tax rate is 24.9%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate.
