New federal tax brackets

As inflation has remained high over the past year, the federal government has adjusted the tax brackets again for the 2023 tax year. Each of the brackets has seen an increase from the 2022 thresholds so taxpayers will be paying a lower amount on more of their annual income.

In 2023:

  • Up to $53,359 of income will be taxed at 15%.
  • Income between $53,359-$106,716 will be taxed at 20.5%.
  • Income between $106,717 and $165,430 will be taxed at 26%.
  • Income between $165,430 and $235,675 will be taxed at 29%.
  • Any income above $235,675 will be taxed at 33%.

Note that these are the federal tax brackets for 2023. There are also provincial tax brackets to be aware of – below chart is the combined taxes for BC and Federal
