Determine Your Federal Basic Personal Amount
First, identify the federal basic personal amount for the current tax year. For the 2022 tax year, the federal basic personal amount is $13,808. You can find this information on the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) website or consult a tax professional.
Determine Your Provincial Basic Personal Amount
Next, determine the provincial basic personal amount for your province of residence. For example, the provincial basic personal amount for Ontario is $10,783 for the 2022 tax year. You can find this information on your province's government website or consult a tax professional.
Calculate Your Federal Tax Savings
Now, calculate your federal tax savings by multiplying the federal basic personal amount by the federal tax rate. For example, if the federal tax rate is 15%, your federal tax savings would be $13,808 x 0.15 = $2,071.20.
Calculate Your Provincial Tax Savings
Then, calculate your provincial tax savings by multiplying the provincial basic personal amount by the provincial tax rate. Using the same example as above, if the provincial tax rate is 5.05% for Ontario, your provincial tax savings would be $10,783 x 0.0505 = $544.57.
Calculate Your Total Tax Savings
Finally, calculate your total tax savings by adding your federal and provincial tax savings. Using the same example as above, your total tax savings would be $2,071.20 + $544.57 = $2,615.77.
