Resident$ 16,065.00
Non-resident$ 16,065.00

In Canada the personal allowance, also known as the basic personal amount, plays a critical role in the calculation of income tax for individuals. Here's an overview of how this works:

Understanding the Basic Personal Amount

Definition: The basic personal amount is a non-refundable tax credit that every individual can claim on their income tax return. It represents a portion of income that is not subject to tax.

Purpose: This allowance aims to provide all taxpayers with a basic level of income that is exempt from taxation, thereby ensuring that those with minimal income are not burdened by income tax.

Personal Allowance in Canada for 2020

Amount: As of 2020, the basic personal amount in Canada is set at $ 16,065.00. This amount is adjusted annually to account for inflation and other economic factors.

Calculation: To calculate the tax credit, this amount is multiplied by the lowest Federal tax rate. In Canada, the lowest rate is 10.5%, making the tax credit worth approximately $ 1,686.83 ($ 16,065.00 x 10.5%).

Impact on Taxable Income: This tax credit is then subtracted from the total federal tax calculated on an individual's taxable income. Essentially, it lowers the amount of tax payable by the taxpayer. the same approach is used for provincial income tax credits, see the respective province for further details (see link in menu).
