Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $248 to pay you $5,660. In other words, every time you spend $10 of your hard-earned money, $2 goes to the government.
Real tax rate
19.1%
So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 15.6% tax rate now rises to 19.1%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 3.5% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $5,660 a year living in the region of Ontario, Canada, you will be taxed $882. That means that your net pay will be $4,778 per year, or $398 per month.
