New Brunswick’s four provincial brackets run from 9.4% to 19.5%, and its take-home pay sits in the middle of the pack — ahead of Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island at most levels, behind the west. Its $13,664 basic personal amount is mid-pack, and there is no provincial surtax or health premium on top.

How your New Brunswick paycheque is calculated
Income tax is calculated on your taxable income — your gross salary minus any RRSP contribution — using the 2026 federal brackets and New Brunswick's four brackets (9.4% to 19.5%). CPP comes off at 5.95% of earnings between $3,500 and $74,600 (maximum $4,230.45), plus a second CPP contribution of 4% on earnings from $74,600 to $85,000 (maximum $416). EI is 1.63% of insurable earnings up to $68,900 (maximum $1,123.07). Only the basic personal amount is applied — no other credits.
An RRSP contribution lowers your taxable income, so it lowers your income tax — but the contribution itself also comes out of your paycheque. Try one above to see the trade-off: the calculator shows exactly how much tax it saves you.
