Why does my CRA notice of assessment show a higher owing amount than the Turbotax amount?

The amount of tax due depends on your income.  The more you earn, the higher your calculated income tax will be. This is called a progressive (or graduated) tax system. 

Income tax brackets are ranges of income on which a set rate of tax is applied.

  • Canadian taxpayers pay income tax to the federal government as well as to the government of the province/territory where they reside.
  • Credits and deductions are 2 common ways of reducing your taxes owing and/or increasing your tax refund.
