1. You addition all your income (all invoices that you give to your clients). That will be your total income.

2. You have to pay Impôt to Québec (15%) and you have to pay Impôt to Canada -federal- (15%). You calculate this from your total income. That will be your Subtotal Impôt (30%).

3.- You addition all your taxes collected from your total income (from all the invoices you give to your clients)

4.- From your (1) total income, you subtract the (2) Subtotal Impôt and the Credit d'impôt (3,802.35) (check here)

The result pour capoter ta vie :P

And the rest is part of the research I needed to do to kind of understand what I need to be aware to have always in my bank account at the end of the year to be able to pay to the government the 30% plus the taxes, for making money.


What is the minimum income to file taxes in 2019 in Canada?

$12,069
For 2019, every taxpayer can earn taxable income of $12,069. This was increased by indexation to $12,298 for 2020.Dec 12, 2019
Non-refundable tax credits

All taxpayers can claim a basic non-refundable tax credit for their income tax, known as the personal amount. It is adjusted annually to allow for inflation and other factors. 


In 2019, the personal amount for federal taxes was $12,069 and 

the personal amount for Quebec taxes was $15,269.


Pour l'année d'imposition 2019, le crédit personnel de base fédéral est de 12 069 $, auquel on applique un taux de 15 % pour une valeur maximale de 1 810 $. 


So if you live in Québec this is the number you need to use AS your federal crédit d'impôt.


Pour un particulier québécois, en raison de l'abattement pour les résidents du Québec, la valeur maximale du crédit personnel de base fédéral est 1 512 $.


Tax brackets and rates






Canadian federal personal income tax is calculated based on taxable income, then non-refundable tax credits are deducted to determine the net amount payable.  For 2019, every taxpayer can earn taxable income of $12,069.  This was increased by indexation to $12,298 for 2020.  However, on December 9, 2019, the federal government presented legislative proposals that would provide an additional amount of BPA for 2020 and later years for the basic personal amount (BPA), spousal amount and eligible dependant amount.  See the article on the basic personal amount for details.  All legislative proposals are subject to parliamentary approval.

The basic personal tax credit is calculated by multiplying the tax rate for the lowest tax bracket by the basic personal amount.  The 2019 tax credit is 15% x $12,069 = $1,810. For 2020 the tax credit for those with incomes up to $150,473 will be $13,229 x 15% = $1,984.35.  This is $139.65 more than the tax credit before the legislative increases.

Provincial or territorial income taxes are paid in addition to the federal taxes, based on where the taxpayer resides on December 31 of the tax year.  All provinces and territories except Quebec use the taxable income amount calculated for federal tax purposes, and then apply their own income tax rates.  All provinces and territories have most of the same tax credits as the federal tax credits, but usually in different amounts.  The provincial or territorial tax rate for the lowest tax bracket is used to calculate the tax amount of most of the provincial tax credit.  Quebec is the only province which does not use their lowest tax bracket to calculate most personal tax credits.

To see the combined federal and provincial/territorial tax rates, see the tables of Personal Income Tax Rates.  These tables also include the marginal tax rates for capital gains, and both types of Canadian dividends.  The federal and provincial or territorial personal amount is also shown, and the rate used to calculate non-refundable tax credits.

To determine your taxes payable, use our Personal Income Tax Calculators.

See our Personal Income Tax page for links to tables of personal income tax rates and personal tax credits for all provinces and territories.

How much money do you have to make to 'not to pay' taxes in canada?



EXTRA INFORMATION

Standard deduction amounts

In 2020 for example, single taxpayers and married taxpayers who file separate returns can claim a $12,400 standard deduction. Married couples filing jointly can claim an amount that's twice as large, $24,800, and taxpayers filing as "head of household" (single individuals with dependents) can claim a standard deduction of $18,650.

next from here

In 2020, you don't need to file a tax return if all of the following are true for you:

  • Under age 65
  • Single
  • Don't have any special circumstances that require you to file (like self-employment income)
  • Earn less than $12,400 (which is the 2020 standard deduction for a single taxpayer)

Students are not exempt from filing either. If your 20-year-old child is an entrepreneur who made over $3,500 (after expenses) running a small business last summer, they must file an income tax return even if they’re still in school. All working children should file a tax return as soon as they start earning income.
