Quebec runs its own income tax

Payroll deductions differ too. Quebec workers pay into the Quebec Pension Plan at 6.3% instead of CPP, EI at a reduced 1.3% because Quebec runs its own parental leave program, and Quebec Parental Insurance Plan premiums of 0.43% for it.
Quebec's deduction for workers takes 6% of employment income, up to $1,450, off provincial taxable income. Unlike the other provinces, Quebec gives no provincial credit for QPP, EI or QPIP contributions.

How accurate is this?
It uses the 2026 federal and provincial tax rates, basic personal amounts and CPP, QPP, EI and QPIP rates that employers use for payroll, so it lands close for a straightforward salaried situation, but your actual paycheque will differ. It does not include credits claimed only when you file, such as provincial low-income credits, the Canada Workers Benefit or credits for dependants, and it does not model other income, bonuses or employer benefits. It is an estimate rather than tax advice.
