Rates are statutory bracket rates for 2025. The basic personal amount (about $16,129 federally and $22,323 in Alberta) means little or no tax is actually paid at the bottom of the scale. Income tax only — CPP/EI are separate. Between $177,882 and $253,414 the real marginal rate is about 0.3% higher than shown, because the federal basic-personal-amount phase-out is omitted here for simplicity. Figures are estimates — verify against the CRA before relying on them.

How income tax works in Alberta
Alberta has the highest basic personal amount in Canada (about $22,323), so the first chunk of income is tax-free provincially, and there is no provincial surtax. With a low 8% bottom rate and a 15% top rate, its combined top marginal rate of 48.00% is among the lowest of the provinces.
For 2025, Alberta has 6 tax brackets, from a bottom rate of 8.0% to a top rate of 15.0%. Added to federal tax, that works out to a combined top marginal rate of 48.00%. Federal tax is the same in every province; what changes your take-home pay from one province to the next is the provincial portion.

What's the difference between marginal and average tax rate?
Your marginal rate is the tax on your next dollar — the combined rate for your bracket in the table above. Your average rate is total tax divided by total income, which is lower because the brackets below yours are taxed less. The calculator shows both.
Are CPP and EI included in these rates?
The bracket table shows income tax only (federal + provincial). The calculator on this page also subtracts CPP and EI, which are separate payroll contributions with their own annual maximums — so your full take-home pay reflects all of them.
