Detailed deduction results

Annualized results multiply this pay-period estimate by the selected pay frequency. They are best for planning, because true payroll tax can change when CPP, CPP2 or EI maximums are reached midyear.
New Brunswick payroll rules this calculator watches
The calculator applies the per-period basic exemption, the 2026 CPP maximum, the first additional CPP tax deduction and the CPP2 band above the YMPE.
EI is calculated at 1.63% of insurable earnings until the employee reaches the 2026 maximum annual premium of $1,123.07.
The calculator uses New Brunswick's 2026 brackets: 9.4% up to $52,333, 14% up to $104,666, 16% up to $193,861 and 19.5% above that.
Optional approved New Brunswick labour-sponsored share purchases can create a 20% provincial credit, capped at $2,000 annually in the CRA formula.

New Brunswick employee payroll calculator FAQ
Does this replace CRA PDOC?
No. It is a planning and review calculator. CRA PDOC, payroll software and the employee's actual TD1 records should be used for final withholding.
Why does net pay change after the CPP or EI maximum?
Once an employee reaches the annual CPP, CPP2 or EI limit with the employer, those deductions stop or reduce, so later cheques can be higher.
Did New Brunswick have a July 2026 formula change?
The CRA July 1, 2026 formula update says there was no change for New Brunswick, so this calculator uses the 2026 New Brunswick brackets and claim-code amounts from the January tables.
What New Brunswick TD1 amount is used?
The default provincial claim is the 2026 TD1NB basic personal amount of $13,664. You can select another CRA claim code or enter the employee's actual TD1NB amount.
