CPP CONTRIBUTION


In 2024, the maximum pensionable earnings under the Canada Pension Plan (CPP) will increase to $68,500, up from $66,600 in 2023. The basic exemption amount will remain at $3,500.

Also beginning in 2024, a new higher earnings ceiling of $73,200 will be introduced, which will be used to calculate second additional CPP contributions (CPP2). Therefore, earnings between $68,500 and $73,200 will be subject to CPP2 contributions.

These changes are based on the CPP legislation and reflect the rise in average weekly wages and salaries in Canada.

CPP Contribution Rates and Maximum Amounts for 2024

For 2024, the contribution rates for both employees and employers under CPP will remain at 5.95%. The maximum contribution amount will increase to $3,867.50, up from $3,754.45 in 2023. For self-employed individuals, the contribution rate will stay at 11.90%, with the maximum contribution amount rising to $7,735.00 from $7,508.90 in 2023.

Regarding CPP2 contributions, the rates for both employees and employers will be 4.00% in 2024, with a maximum contribution amount of $188.00 each. For self-employed individuals, the CPP2 contribution rate will be 8.00%, with a maximum contribution of $376.00.

Contributors will neither be required nor allowed to make contributions on earnings exceeding $73,200.
