Calculation methods
Reminder: There is an online calculator that will calculate the CPP deductions for you.
Calculate CPP deductions based on the type of payment:
Regular payments (CPP tables)
CPP contributions tables calculate the required CPP contributions for you on given ranges of income for a specified pay period. The share of the annual exemption for that pay period has already been factored into these calculations.
Steps
Determine if you can use CPP contributions tables
CPP contributions tables can be used in most common situations.
Use when
- The payment is for regular employment income or was made with regular pay for one of the common or uncommon pay periods for which tables are provided
- If the payment is made to a First Nations worker and you received Form TD1-IN, only use these tables on the portion of their income which is taxable
Do not use when
- The payment is for regular payments at irregular intervals (not paid regularly), use: Regular payments at irregular intervals
- The payment is for a bonus, a retroactive or an irregular payment made separately from regular pay, use: Bonus, retroactive or irregular payments
- Your pay period does not have a table provided in the common or uncommon pay periods per year, use: Regular payments (manual calculation)
- You are doing a year-end verification of your CPP contributions, use: Verification – Year-end or multiple pay periods
- The employee already reached their CPP maximum contributions for the year
Determine if your employee reached the maximum contribution
Use the applicable calculation if your employee has a pensionable employment for the full year or only for part of the year (prorate) .
Employee has more than one employer
You must withhold CPP contributions until your employee reaches the maximum without taking into account deductions made by another employer.
Calculation – Employee pensionable for full year
- Maximum annual employee CPP contributions in their employment with you
- minus Employee's contributions to date for the year in their employment with you
- equals This amount is the maximum CPP contributions that you can deduct from your employee's pay for the rest of the year
Calculation example
All of Joseph's earnings were pensionable for the year 2024. You have already deducted $300 in CPP from his earnings with you this year.
- $3,867.50 is the maximum 2024 annual CPP contributions
- minus $300 is the amount Joseph contributed for the year to date (in his employment with you)
- equals $3,567.50 is the maximum CPP amount you can deduct
Calculation – Employee pensionable only for part of the year (prorate)
- Maximum annual pensionable earnings
- minus Basic exemption amount ($3,500)
- equals This amount is the maximum CPP contributory earnings
- multiply by Number of months the employee is pensionable
- equals Result of first step of proration calculation
- divide by 12 months
- equals Maximum pensionable earnings after prorating
- multiply by CPP rate
- equals This amount is the maximum CPP contributions after prorating in their employment with you
- minus Employee's contributions to date for the year in their employment with you
- equals This amount is the maximum CPP contributions that you can deduct from your employee's pay for the rest of the year
Calculation example
Joseph turns 70 on February 24, 2024 and is pensionable for 2 months. You have already deducted $300 in CPP from his earnings with you this year.
- $68,500 is Joseph's maximum annual pensionable earnings in his employment with you
- minus $3,500 for the basic exemption amount
- equals $65,000 is the maximum CPP contributory earnings
- multiply by 2 months that Joseph is pensionable
- equals $130,000 is the first step of the proration calculation
- divide by 12 months
- equals $10,833.33 is Joseph's maximum pensionable earnings after prorating
- multiply by 5.95% is the 2024 CPP rate
- equals $644.58 is Joseph's maximum CPP contributions after prorating in his employment with you
- minus $300.00 is Joseph's contributions to date for the year in his employment with you
- equals $344.58 is the maximum CPP contributions that you can deduct from Joseph's pay for the rest of the year
No CPP contributions should be deducted after the end of February 2024.
Do not continue to next step if your employee has reached the first maximum.
You must continue to: Calculate second additional CPP contributions (CPP2) deductions.
- Continue to next step if your employee has not reached the maximum.

Determine the pay range
Find the range that includes your employee's gross remuneration (including any taxable benefits) in the "Pay" column.
If the maximum CPP contribution is reached during the pay period, use only the part of their pensionable earnings for the pay period up to the first maximum annual pensionable earnings ceiling to determine the pay range to use.
Get the amount of CPP contributions to deduct
Find the amount under the "CPP" column that corresponds with the range that includes your employee's pay for the pay period.
Calculate the amount of CPP contributions you have to withhold
Use one of the following amount that applies to your situation:

- From employment, benefits, and payments from which you do not deduct CPP
- equals $35,000 is Joseph's pensionable earnings for the period of employment
Confirm the amount of pensionable earnings for the period of employment
Use one of the following amount that applies to your situation:
If the amount in step 1 is less than maximum annual pensionable earnings , use the amount from step 1.
If the amount in step 1 is greater than maximum annual pensionable earnings , use the maximum annual pensionable earnings.
Determine the amount of required CPP contributions for the period of employment
- Pensionable earnings for the period of employment (step 2)
- minus Basic exemption amount that matches your pay period multiply by Number of pay periods of pensionable earnings for the period of employment
- equals Employee's contributory earnings for the period of employment
- multiply by CPP rate
- equals This amount is the employee's required CPP contributions for the period of employment
Calculation example 1
Joseph was paid monthly during his employment with your company in the year of 2024.
- $35,000 is Joseph's pensionable earnings for the period of employment (step 2)
- minus $3,500 is Joseph's basic exemption amount for the period of employment ($291.67 X 12 pay periods)
- equals $31,500 is Joseph's contributory earnings for the period of employment
- multiply by 5.95% is the 2024 CPP rate
- equals $1,874.25 is Joseph's required CPP contributions for the period of employment
Calculation example 2
Joseph was paid bi-weekly during his employment with your company in the year of 2024. He was paid by your company for 15 pay periods.
- $35,000 is Joseph's pensionable earnings for the period of employment (step 2)
- minus $1,944.30 is Joseph's basic exemption amount for the period of employment ($129.62 X 15 pay periods)
- equals $33,055.15 is Joseph's contributory earnings for the period of employment
- multiply by 5.95% is the 2024 CPP rate
- equals $1,966.81 is Joseph's required CPP contributions for the period of employment
Determine if you have under or over remitted for the period of employment
- Employee's required CPP contributions for the period of employment (step 3)
- minus CPP contributions you deducted from the employee for the period of employment
- equals This amount should be $0 if you have deducted correctly
Calculation example
You confirmed in your payroll records that a total of $1,874.25 in CPP was deducted from Joseph's pay during the year of 2024.
- $1,874.25 is Joseph's required CPP contributions for the period of employment (step 3, example 1)
- minus $1,874.25 is the CPP contributions you deducted from Joseph for the period of employment
- equals $0 is the amount, this means you have deducted correctly
- If the amount is positive you have under deducted for the period of employment.
- If the amount is negative you have over deducted for the period of employment.
