Did you know your employer also pays tax on your salary? It costs the employer $1,532 to pay you $20,500. In other words, every time you spend $10 of your hard-earned money, $2.75 goes to the government.

Real tax rate

25.6%

So, with you and the employer both paying tax, what used to be a 20% tax rate now rises to 25.6%, meaning your real tax rate is actually 5.6% higher than what it seemed at first.

Summary

If you make $20,500 a year living in the region of Quebec, Canada, you will be taxed $4,098. That means that your net pay will be $16,402 per year, or $1,367 per month. Your average tax rate is 20.0% and your marginal tax rate is 34.3%. This marginal tax rate means that your immediate additional income will be taxed at this rate. For instance, an increase of $100 in your salary will be taxed $34.3, hence, your net pay will only increase by $65.7.
