So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 20.2% tax rate now rises to 24.4%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 4.2% higher than what it seemed at first.
Summary
If you make $8,270 a year living in the region of Ontario, Canada, you will be taxed $1,670. That means that your net pay will be $6,600 per year, or $550 per month.
