Payroll in Yukon: what's different
Yukon mirrors the federal system: its brackets and basic personal amount follow the federal ones.
- The basic personal amount is the same as the federal one: $16,452, reduced gradually for incomes between $181,440 and $258,482.
- Yukon is the only territory with its own Canada employment amount credit (6.4% of $1,501).
- Five brackets from 6.4% to 15% above $500,000.
Everything else is national: federal tax, CPP and EI work the same in every province outside Quebec.

Questions
How much is taken off a $60,000 paycheque in Yukon?
On a $60,000 salary paid biweekly, each $2,307.69 paycheque has $205.32 federal tax, $93.71 territorial tax, $129.30 CPP and $37.62 EI withheld, leaving $1,841.74 take-home pay (basic TD1 claims, first paycheque of the year).
Is the Yukon basic personal amount the same as the federal one?
Yes. Yukon uses the federal formula: $16,452, reduced gradually for incomes between $181,440 and $258,482 down to $14,829.
What are the CPP and EI rates in Yukon for 2026?
Yukon uses the national CPP and EI rates. For 2026, employees pay 5.95% CPP on earnings between $3,500 and $74,600 (maximum $4,230.45), 4% CPP2 on earnings between $74,600 and $85,000 (maximum $416.00) and 1.63% EI on insurable earnings up to $68,900 (maximum $1,123.07). Outside Quebec.
Why does my paycheque get bigger near the end of the year?
Because CPP and EI have yearly maximums. On a $90,000 salary paid biweekly, EI reaches its maximum on pay 20 and CPP on pay 22 of 26. After that only CPP2 (4%) is withheld, so the net paycheque goes from $2,577.96 to $2,822.52 until January.
Is this Yukon calculator accurate?
We implement the CRA's own payroll formulas (T4127, 123rd edition) and test them against the CRA's Payroll Deductions Online Calculator (PDOC): 214 of 214 test paycheques across 13 provinces and territories, three pay frequencies and five salaries match to the cent. For Quebec we use Revenu Québec's formulas (TP-1015.F-V) and also check Quebec tax, QPP and QPIP against its WebRAS calculator. The PDOC and WebRAS are still the official tools.
