Federal alternative minimum tax (AMT) is estimated
based on available information. AMT
not calculated for QC. Individuals who
may be subject to AMT, or who do not have a simple tax situation, should be
seeking advice from a tax lawyer or CPA tax specialist.
This calculator is intended to be used for
planning purposes. It does not include every available tax credit. We strive
for accuracy, but cannot guarantee it.
Calculations are based on rates known as of November 29, 2024. Increased inclusion rate for capital gains has been included,
but when legislation is passed, changes may be required.
2025 and 2024 tax brackets and tax rates have been verified to CRA and
Quebec factors. Some tax credit amounts remain unverified.
The Tax Shield is not included in the calculation.
CWB 2024 and 2025 rates are calculated using 2023 rates indexed for
inflation.
QC prescription premium factors for 2025 are estimated based on indexation.
