Real tax rate
12.6%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 10.5% tax rate now rises to 12.6%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 2.1% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $3,230 a year living in the region of Ontario, Canada, you will be taxed $340. That means that your net pay will be $2,890 per year, or $241 per month.
