Questions regarding new taxable income in Romania

HI David, you guys did my taxes.. which was great.... you gusy were very professional.  I was working in and out of Las Vegas at the time.  I have a new job out of ROmania Starting on July 1st now, I work only out of Canada, and so far have made almost $60k over July to SEpt... wondering how much I should be putting aside for taxation, though I will have a ton of write offs from working in the US again.

ANy advice you can give me would be grateful. OF course I Will be paying you guys to do taxes for me again.  I am assuming that everything was ok with my return, and I do not owe any further money to you. IF there is any balance please let me know so that I a nimmediately get it looked after.

Thanx you

In general to cover both CPP and income tax, you should put away at least 33% of the net income (your profit)  up to $100,000. 
 
If you are going to be over $100,000, you should put away 45% of the amount over $100,000 - so 33% on everything up to $100,0000 and then start saving 45%

The reason for these amounts is that (depending on the province) there are 3 to 5 tax brackets fromn zero to over $120,000.  Up to about $35,000, the income tax is 23 to 25% and the CPP is just about 10% on everything up to about $40,000.  Over $40,000, there is no more CPP and the tax rate goes up 27%  29% 33 % 39% and then 44% at over about $120,000.
 
At $100,000

And, my client tomorrow is from Romania as well.
