Saskatchewan Income Tax — FAQ
Common questions about Saskatchewan's 2026 provincial income tax.
What are Saskatchewan's 2026 income tax brackets?
Saskatchewan uses three provincial brackets: 10.5% on the first $49,720; 12.5% on $49,720–$142,058; and 14.5% on income over $142,058. Saskatchewan's simple three-bracket system is among the most straightforward in Canada.
What is Saskatchewan's basic personal amount?
The 2026 Saskatchewan BPA is $17,661 — one of the highest in Canada. This reduces Saskatchewan provincial tax by approximately $1,854 (10.5% × $17,661).
How does Saskatchewan compare to Alberta for taxes?
Saskatchewan has a top combined rate of ~47.5% vs Alberta's ~48%. Both are among the lowest in Canada. However, Alberta's much larger 10% bracket and higher BPA ($21,003) make it slightly more favourable for higher incomes. Full comparison →
Does Saskatchewan have a PST?
Yes. Saskatchewan levies a 6% Provincial Sales Tax (PST) on most goods and some services. Unlike Alberta, which has no provincial sales tax, Saskatchewan residents pay PST on everyday purchases. However, Saskatchewan's lower income tax rates partially offset this.
What Saskatchewan-specific tax credits are available?
Saskatchewan offers several provincial credits including the Saskatchewan Low-Income Tax Credit (refundable, up to ~$378/person), the Active Families Benefit for children's sports and arts activities, and the Graduate Retention Program which provides up to $20,000 in credits for graduates who live and work in Saskatchewan.
