Is a TFSA right for you?

Whether you're saving for a short-term goal or looking to supplement your retirement plans, a TFSA offers unmatched flexibility and tax advantages.

Key Benefits of a TFSA

Enjoy tax-free growth and unmatched flexibility while protecting your benefits. 

  • Tax-Free Growth: Grow your savings faster with tax-free investment income and withdrawals.
  • Flexible Contribution Rules:
    • Annual limits set by the Federal Government.
    • Unused contribution room rolls over to future years.
    • Withdrawals can be re-contributed in future years (avoid re-contributing in the same year to prevent penalties).
  • No Impact on Benefits: Income and withdrawals don’t affect eligibility for federal benefits like Old Age Security or GST credits.

Investment Options for Your TFSA

Find the right investments to meet your savings goals.

  • Term Deposits: Secure, fixed-rate investments.
  • High Interest Savings Accounts: Flexible access with competitive interest rates.

Additional Features

Flexible and transferable savings for every stage of life.

  • Contributions are not tax-deductible but offer long-term flexibility.
  • Funds can be gifted to a spouse or common-law partner for their TFSA.
  • TFSA assets can generally be transferred to a spouse or common-law partner upon death.
