Last updated: 27 September 2026

RightSums gives estimates to help you plan. The results are worked out from published rules at the date shown on each page, and they are not financial, tax, legal, medical or immigration advice.

Money, tax and pay

Take-home pay, tax, benefit, pension and child support figures follow the official rules for the year stated, applied to the figures you enter. Your actual payslip, tax bill, benefit award or court order can differ, because it may depend on details the tool doesn't have, such as other income, a different tax code, deductions your employer makes, or a decision a court or agency makes. Where an official calculator exists, the tool links to it; use it, or ask a qualified adviser, before making a decision that matters.

Health

Health calculators such as BMI, body fat and A1c estimates show what a formula gives for your inputs. They cannot diagnose anything. Speak to a GP, doctor or other health professional about your own health.

Immigration points

Points calculators follow the published criteria at the date shown. The immigration authority, such as IRCC in Canada, makes the decision, and criteria and draw cut-offs change.

Document and PDF tools

Figures and dates read from documents are extracted by pattern matching and text recognition, which can miss or misread something. Check every extracted figure against the original document before relying on it. Keep a copy of any file you change with a PDF tool.

Links to other websites

We link to official sources and other sites so you can check the rules yourself. We are not responsible for their content, and a link is not an endorsement.

Our responsibility

We check our figures against their official sources and correct mistakes when we find them, as our editorial policy explains. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for loss arising from decisions made using the tools. Nothing on this page limits any liability that cannot be limited by law. The terms of use set out the full conditions.
