Newfoundland and Labrador tax rate at low incomes: the reduction clawback

At low incomes your NL marginal rate can exceed the middle-income rate, because the low-income tax reduction is clawed back as income rises.

On $28,000 of employment income, NL tax before the reduction is $1,130.29. The reduction takes $384.68 off that, so you pay $745.61. The combined marginal rate is 38.7% there, against 35.0% at $60,000.

NL benefits and credits paid through your tax return

File to get these, even with no tax owing. CRA amounts for July 2026 to June 2027:

  • Newfoundland and Labrador child benefit: $157.33 a month for the first child, $166.83 for the second, $179.16 for the third and $192.50 for each additional child. It is reduced above $20,397 of adjusted family net income.
  • NL income supplement: up to $520 a year for a single person, with extra amounts for a spouse and $231 for each child under 19. Paid quarterly with the federal Canada Groceries and Essentials Benefit.
  • NL seniors’ benefit: up to $1,882 a year if you are 64 or older on December 31 and family net income is $30,409 or less. It is phased out at 11.66% of income above that and ends at $46,549.

Labrador and the northern residents deductions

Labrador, including Belle Isle, is a prescribed northern zone under section 7303.1 of the Income Tax Regulations. The island of Newfoundland is in no zone. Labrador residents of six months or more claim the residency and travel deductions on Form T2222.

Section 110.7 of the Income Tax Act sets $11 a day for the basic residency amount, plus another $11 a day if you maintain the home and no one else in it claims. For a full year that is $8,030 off taxable income. At a $85,000 salary it cuts combined federal and NL tax by about $2,811.

Frequently asked questions

Why is my NL refund bigger than expected on a low income?

Payroll withholding ignores the Newfoundland and Labrador low-income tax reduction. The reduction is applied only on Form NL428 when you file, so on a modest income like $28,000 it comes back as a refund of about $385.

Which TD1 form do Newfoundland and Labrador employees fill out?

The federal TD1 and the TD1NL 2026. The TD1NL sets the provincial credits your employer uses for withholding; Labrador residents claim the prescribed-zone deduction on page 2 of the federal TD1.

What is the Newfoundland and Labrador disability benefit?

A non-taxable monthly payment for low-income people with disabilities, new for 2025 according to the CRA. It pays up to $400 a month to people aged 18 to 64 with a valid disability tax credit certificate, based on your tax return.
