Quebec Income Tax & RRSP Savings Calculators for 2025, 2024 and Prior Years
The detailed Quebec Income Tax Calculator for 2024 & 2025 (click link to open the calculator in a new window) is a great tax planning and financial planning tool, but will not actually file your tax return for you.
You may have to refresh your browser to see the latest version. If you use Chrome you may also have to clear your cache (shift-ctrl-del, choose Cached images and files) if the calculator appears odd or messed up.

We've eliminated the French version of the the calculators, because it was extra work, and was rarely accessed.
The Quebec Tax Calculator will retain all of your data data, on your computer, depending on your browser settings. If you are on a public computer, click reset to clear the data before you close the browser.
If you want the information to be retained, ensure that your browser is set appropriately:
 | Internet Explorer ( IE) - Tools, Internet Options, Privacy, Advanced - make sure that "always allow session cookies" is checked. |
| Chrome - Settings, Advanced Settings, Privacy, Content settings, Allow local data to be set. |
| Firefox - Tools, Options, Privacy - under History where it says "Firefox will:", change to "Use custom settings for history". Then make sure that "Accept cookies from sites" is checked. Accept third-party cookies - this setting doesn't matter. Keep until - this should be set to "they expire" or "ask me every time". |
The tax calculator includes most available deductions and tax credits, and pension splitting. It will be especially useful as a tax planning tool for those who have some control over their income, such as
| people making RRIF/RRSP withdrawals |
| incorporated business owners |
| investors trying to decide between investments which produce capital gains, Canadian dividends, or other investment income |
If you hover over many of the fields in the calculator, you will see information regarding that particular field.
The calculator includes links to information on some of the non-refundable tax credits. The links open in the same window, replacing the calculator, but when the browser Back button is clicked, the previously entered information is still available in the calculator. To open the links in a new window, right-click on the link, and select "Open in New Window".

Line 10400 was line 104 prior to 2019.
This income should be included with Line 10100 (line 101 prior to 2019) employment income in the calculator. However, do not include it in the insurable or pensionable income amounts below the employment income line.

Is the "tax savings re RRSPs" the amount of the income tax refund I would get?
Answer:
The "tax savings re RRSPs" is the amount your income taxes will be reduced for that amount of RRSP contribution (make sure the contribution doesn't exceed your RRSP deduction limit - this is not checked by the calculator). Compare the total income taxes result from the calculator to what you have actually paid during the year to determine the amount of your refund.
