Canada Pension Plan (CPP) Contributions
The Canada Pension Plan (CPP) retirement pension is a monthly paid benefit that replaces part of your income when you retire. Employees and employers contribute to CPP.
- Contributions to CPP are compulsory for all working Canadians aged 18-70. Employees and employers contribute equally on earnings that are between the Basic Exemption amount and the . In 2023, contributions on those earnings are 5.95% by employees and 5.95% by employers.
- If you earn more than the Year's Maximum Pensionable Earnings, your contributions and those by 深夜福利站 to CPP on your behalf will cease once the limit is reached each year. The following January, CPP contributions will begin again. This means you may see a noticeable increase in your pay when CPP deductions cease during a year, and then you may see a noticeable decrease in your pay at the beginning of the following year when deductions begin again.
- Non-residents working in Canada are required to make contributions.
- To be eligible to begin receiving CPP, you must be at least 60 years of age, and have made at least one contribution to CPP. The amount of CPP you will receive depends on your personal contribution history.
- Canadians aged 65-70 AND in receipt of CPP benefits may elect to cease contributions by filing Form CPT30. Read more about CPP contributions for those collecting CPP between age 60-70.

CPP Enhancement
Starting in 2019, CPP payments to retirees began to gradually increase. CPP contributions (the deduction from your pay) also increased, so that higher benefits will be available when you retire. The CPP enhancements, being implemented over seven years in two steps, will increase the maximum CPP pension by as much as 50% for those who make enhanced contributions for 40 years!
Step 1 - 2019 to 2023: From 2019 to 2023, the contribution rate for employees is increasing by a total of one percentage point (from 4.95% to 5.95%) on earnings between $3,500 and the YPME set for 2019. (See table above)
Step 2 - 2025 to 2025 - Starting in 2024, a second, higher earnings limit will be introduced. This new limit, known as the year’s additional maximum pensionable earnings, will not replace the first earnings ceiling. Instead, it will subject your earnings to two earnings limits. This limit is referred to as the second earnings ceiling. This change will require you to contribute 4% of earnings between the YMPE and AYMPE to the CPP. These contributions are also mandatory.
Note: The additional range of earnings covered by the plan will only affect you in years when your annual earnings are above the first earnings ceiling.
