Frequently Asked Questions
Which provinces have payroll taxes?
Ontario (EHT), Quebec (HSF), British Columbia (EHT), Manitoba (HEL), and Newfoundland (HAPSET) all impose employer payroll taxes. Alberta, Saskatchewan, and most other provinces do not have a general payroll tax.
Are payroll taxes paid by the employer or employee?
Provincial payroll taxes are paid entirely by the employer. They are separate from CPP and EI, which have both employer and employee portions.
Are there exemptions?
Yes. Most provinces provide an exemption threshold. For example, Ontario exempts the first $490,000 of payroll, and BC exempts the first $500,000. Only payroll above the threshold is taxed in some cases.
