Frequently Asked Questions
What are the 2026 CPP maximums?
CPP1: 5.949999999999999% on earnings up to $74,600 (max $4,230.45). CPP2: 4% on earnings between $74,600 and $85,000.
Do I get CPP/EI back?
CPP contributions build your retirement pension — you get this back as monthly CPP payments in retirement. EI premiums fund employment insurance if you lose your job. Neither is refundable on your tax return, but excess contributions are.
