What changes in Quebec
Quebec uses QPP and QPIP instead of the rest-of-Canada CPP/EI pairing, plus a federal abatement. A raise that crosses the QPP or QPP2 range will not increase those contributions further once the annual maximums are reached.

What is the biweekly net increase?

Does a raise change CPP or EI?
It can, until the annual maximums are reached. Crossing a bracket or the CPP2/QPP2 range also changes the share you keep. The before/after table already includes those ceilings.
Does a raise push me into a higher tax bracket in Quebec?
Only the dollars above a bracket threshold are taxed at the higher rate. This calculator uses the full payroll estimate, so bracket crossings are already in the before/after difference.
How much of my raise will I actually keep?
The keep percentage is net raise divided by gross raise. It is based on two annual payroll estimates, not a single marginal rate applied to the raise.
Can I enter a raise as a percentage?
Yes. Choose Raise % and the calculator converts it into a new annual salary before running the comparison.
Is this the same as a bonus calculator?
A raise changes ongoing salary. A bonus is usually a one-time amount added to this year’s income. Use the bonus tax calculator for that case.
