1. Omar graduated from Concordia in December 2018. He started working at the Royal Bank of Canada (RBC) as an investment advisor on January 1, 2019. In 2019, his gross annual salary was $95,000 plus commissions of $10,500.

With the bonus, he made contributions of $4,500 to a Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP) and $3,500 to a Tax-Free Savings Account (TFSA); note that his Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) Notice of Assessment stated he could make RRSP contributions of up to $10,000 (based on his previous part-time work when he was a student), and up to $28,500 to his TFSA. We are currently July 1, 2020 and Omar is ready to file his 2019 personal income tax returns. As a resident of Quebec, calculate his combined 2019 taxes payable.
