The above information is based on $10.00 per hour, for a 30 hour work week, paid monthly to your caregiver.
From the net amount listed above, you may deduct up to a maximum of $369.42 per month for room and board of your Live-in Caregiver.
Therefore, the total cost to employ a Foreign Live-in Caregiver at 30 hours per week, paid monthly would be:
1093.35 minus 369.42 for room and board equals 723.93 per month net pay to your Live-in Caregiver, for the months that there is 4 weeks in a month.
Canada Revenue Agency will require you to submit the Federal & Provincial Tax deductions, Canada Pension Plan and Employment Insurance that are to be deducted from your caregiver’s pay. As an employer you will also be required to make a monthly employer for CPP & EI. See calculation below…
