Forecast
Provincial revenue is projected to be $50 billion in 2020-21, or $1 billion lower than forecast in 2019-20.
Revenue is forecast to stay relatively stable in 2021-22 and then grow to $58.1 billion in 2022-23, mainly by increasing income taxes and bitumen royalties.
Table 1: Budget 2020 Revenue (millions of dollars)
| Revenue sources | 2018-19 Actual | 2019-20 Forecast | 2020-21 Estimate | 2021 Target | 2022-23 Target |

Non-renewable resource revenue
Non-renewable resource revenue is estimated to decrease due almost entirely to decreased bitumen royalties from a wider light-heavy oil price differential, reflecting more expensive rail transportation costs.
Revenue from non-renewable resources is forecast at $5.1 billion in 2020-21, growing to $8.5 billion by 2022-23.
For more information, see the updated economic and energy price assumptions on the Economic Outlook page.
Table 2: Non-renewable resource revenue (millions of dollars)
| Resource revenue | 2018-19 Actual | 2019-20 Forecast | 2020-21 Estimate | 2021-22 Target | 2022-23 Target |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bitumen royalty | 3,214 | 4,707 | 3,211 | 4,492 | 6,146 |

Income taxes
Tax revenue is forecast to be higher in 2020-21, due to increases in personal income tax, corporate income tax, education property tax and other tax revenue. These are offset by a reduction due to the elimination of the carbon tax.
Tax revenue in 2020-21 is estimated at $22.9 billion, and forecast to reach $25.9 billion by 2022-23.
Personal income tax
Personal income tax revenue is estimated at $12.6 billion in 2020-21, an increase of $747 million, or 6.3% from 2019- 20. Revenue in 2019-20 was $171 million less than the Budget 2019 estimate after revised 2018 assessment data was lower than expected.
The decrease lowers the prior-years’ adjustment to $17 million, which was added to 2019-20 revenue to account for revisions to 2017-19 and 2018-10 revenue already reported in the government’s financial statements. This also reduces the base used to forecast personal income tax revenue for future years, including 2019 and 2020.
Business taxes
Reducing the corporate income tax rate increases competitiveness and attracts investment by reducing the cost of doing business in Alberta, as suggested by the MacKinnon Panel.
Corporate income tax is forecast at $4.5 billion in 2020-21, an increase of $294 million or 7% from 2019-20. Continued growth in corporate income tax is forecast, based on improving oil prices, expanding oil production, achievement of market access as well as growth in manufacturing and exports and rising economic activity.

Alberta Child and family benefits
Beginning on July 1, 2020, the Alberta Child Benefit (ACB) and the Alberta Family Employment Tax Credit (AFETC) are being consolidated into a single program, the new Alberta Child and Family Benefit (ACFB), with the first payment issued in August 2020. The new ACFB will provide more benefits to lower-income families while streamlining administration.
Final payments for the ACB and AFETC programs have already been issued, although the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) will continue to issue retroactive payments for previous benefit years, if applicable. Households who previously received the AFETC will no longer receive a payment in July, as those that qualify will now receive one combined quarterly ACFB benefit payment starting in August.

Personal income tax – Edmonton Alberta
Overview
Alberta has the highest basic personal and spousal tax amounts in Canada. This means that Albertans are able to earn more before they have to start paying provincial income tax. When all taxes are taken into consideration, Albertans across all income ranges generally pay lower overall taxes compared to other provinces.
For more information, see:
- Alberta’s tax plan (PDF, 6.7 MB)
- Alberta’s Non-Refundable Tax Credit Block and Interprovincial Tax Comparison from the 2020-23 Tax Plan (PDF, 6.7 MB)

The dividend tax credit rate for dividends paid out of income taxed at the general corporate income tax rate (eligible dividends) will be adjusted on January 1, 2021, corresponding with the acceleration of the general corporate income tax rate reduction announced June 29, 2020 in Alberta’s Recovery Plan.
Child and family benefits
Beginning on July 1, 2020, the Alberta Child Benefit (ACB) and the Alberta Family Employment Tax Credit (AFETC) are being consolidated into a single program, the new Alberta Child and Family Benefit (ACFB), with the first payment issued in August 2020. The new ACFB will provide more benefits to lower-income families while streamlining administration.
Final payments for the ACB and AFETC programs have already been issued, although the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) will continue to issue retroactive payments for previous benefit years, if applicable. Households who previously received the AFETC will no longer receive a payment in July, as those that qualify will now receive one combined quarterly ACFB benefit payment starting in August.
Commonly used forms
Alberta’s personal income tax system is administered by the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA). The following forms are commonly used and are available from the CRA:
- current federal and provincial Form TD1 and worksheets
- general income tax package and benefit packages by year

Corporate income tax
Overview
Since the 1940s, all incorporated businesses with a permanent establishment (e.g., office, mine, farm, oil well, etc.) in Alberta at any time in a taxation year pay income tax on the portion of their taxable income allocated to Alberta.
Tax and Revenue Administration (TRA) administers the Alberta Corporate Tax Act that provides the calculation of Alberta corporate income tax, including the Alberta small business deduction and tax credits.
The Alberta calculation of taxable income parallels the federal calculation, although taxpayers may claim different discretionary deductions such as capital cost allowance for federal and provincial purposes.
Deduction and tax credits
Small business deduction
Canadian-controlled private corporations not in an associated group may claim a small business deduction on active business income (i.e., non-investment income), up to the small business threshold of $500,000. Canadian-controlled private corporations in an associated group share the maximum small business threshold.
For more information about the small business deduction:
- Information Circular CT-17, Alberta Small Business Deduction (updated May 2019)
- Special Notice Vol. 5 No. 45, Alberta Small Business Tax Rate Reduction (April 2016)
Scientific Research and Experimental Development Tax Credit
Bill 20, the Fiscal Measures and Taxation Act, 2019 received Royal Assent on December 5, 2019, and Alberta’s Scientific Research and Experimental Development Tax Credit (SR&ED) is being eliminated. For more information, see Special Notice Vol. 5 No. 54, Budget 2019 Elimination of Corporate Tax Credits.
Alberta’s Scientific Research and Experimental Development Tax Credit (SR&ED) program provides a refundable tax credit to corporations for SR&ED expenditures carried out in Alberta by the corporations.

- AT4960 – Listing of SR&ED Projects Claimed in Alberta (PDF, 472 KB) (October 2009)
Foreign Investment Income Tax Credit
A corporation may be entitled to claim an Alberta Foreign Investment Income Tax Credit if it received foreign investment income and is entitled to claim a foreign tax credit under the federal Act relating to foreign income or profits tax paid on income from foreign non-business sources. Foreign investment income is income earned outside Canada that is not reasonably attributable to the carrying on of the corporation’s business. See the following schedule:
- AT1 Schedule 4 (Form AT201) – Alberta Foreign Investment Income Tax Credit (PDF, 273 KB) (July 2012)
Other tax credits
Bill 20, the Fiscal Measures and Taxation Act, 2019 received Royal Assent on December 5, 2019, and the Alberta Investor Tax Credit, Community Economic Development Corporation Tax Credit, Capital Investment Tax Credit, and Interactive Digital Media Tax Credit are being eliminated. For more information, see Special Notice Vol. 5 No. 54, Budget 2019 Elimination of Corporate Tax Credits, or the Budget 2019 Tax Plan (PDF, 7.5 MB).
Together with Alberta Economic Development, Trade and Tourism, Tax and Revenue Administration administers the following tax credits:
- Film and Television Tax Credit (FTTC)
- For more information, see Special Notice Vol. 5 No. 55, Film and Television Tax Credit
- Capital Investment Tax Credit (CITC)
- corporate portion of the Alberta Investor Tax Credit (AITC)
- corporate portion of the Community Economic Development Corporation Tax Credit (CEDCTC)

Provincial and territorial tax
Quebec and Alberta administer their own corporation income tax systems. Corporations that earn income in these provinces have to file separate provincial corporation income tax returns.
All other provinces and territories legislate their corporation income tax provisions, but the CRA administers them. These provinces and territories do not charge income tax on the taxable income of corporations that are exempt from tax under section 149.
If the corporation has a permanent establishment in any province or territory other than Quebec or Alberta, you have to calculate provincial and/or territorial income taxes and credits, as well as federal income taxes and credits, on the return.
Note
Unless otherwise specified in the legislation, the credits are considered government assistance and must be included in income in the tax year they are received.
