Old Age Security, or OAS, is an important part of retirement income for many Canadians, but how and when you receive it can vary.

Your eligibility is based on residency, not work history. Payment amounts can change over time and may be affected by when you start and how OAS fits with your other income sources.

Understanding these details can help you make more informed retirement decisions.

Spousal RRSPs can help to level out household income, both now and in retirement.

The higher-earning spouse contributes and claims the tax deduction at their marginal tax rate, while the lower-earning spouse owns the account and pays tax on future withdrawals, typically at a lower rate. This strategy works particularly well when there's an income gap between partners or a significant age difference.

I help couples evaluate whether spousal RRSPs fit their retirement income strategy. Reach out to discuss your situation.

Income splitting can be a powerful way to help manage household taxes, but only if you know what does and doesn’t qualify.

Eligible pension income, CPP sharing, and spousal RRSPs offer legitimate splitting opportunities. OAS, foreign pensions, and most employment income don't qualify.

Understanding which income sources can be strategically allocated between spouses directly impacts your household tax liability.

I help couples explore income splitting opportunities that apply to their specific situation. Reach out to review your household income structure.

AI may be able to crunch numbers faster than a human. But can it understand your family's story?

AI can analyze data and model scenarios in seconds. But it can't understand the emotional weight of deciding whether to prioritize your child's education or retire earlier, how family dynamics shape your goals, or what truly matters to you.

At Edward Jones, we believe the future is AI empowering advisors not replacing them. We leverage technology to free up time for real conversations about your priorities and life.

There's no "one-size-fits-all" approach. We guide you through an established process that starts with understanding what's important to you, then we partner with you to adjust as your circumstances change.

AI gives us richer analytics. Thoughtful human insight translates them into decisions that feel right for YOU.

Most people think of budgeting as managing what's happening right now. But a balanced budget can help do something more important. It creates room for your future.

Finding that little "extra" each month can mean a lot as you move toward reaching your long-term financial goals, like retirement. When you free up even small amounts through smarter spending choices, that money can go toward education savings for your children, building an emergency fund, or contributing more to retirement accounts.

This is where budgeting stops being about restriction and becomes about possibility. It's not just tracking expenses. It's making sure your daily financial decisions support the life you want to build over the next 10, 20, or 30 years.

If you'd like to understand how your day-to-day budget connects to your bigger financial picture, let's have a conversation. I can help you see a path from where you are today to where you want to go.

These considerations can help you get a handle on how you spend money each month.

If you're planning to move in with your partner, you might be wondering what a cohabitation agreement actually is. Think of it as a clear, written understanding of how you'll handle finances, property, and responsibilities while living together.

A cohabitation agreement typically covers practical questions like:
• Who's responsible for the mortgage or rent?
• How will you split ongoing bills and utilities? What happens to property you each owned before moving in together, or things you buy jointly?
• How will you handle existing debt, and who's responsible for debt you take on together?

The goal isn't to plan for the worst. It's to create clarity so you can focus on building your life together without financial uncertainty getting in the way.

If you're considering moving in with your partner and want to understand how a cohabitation agreement fits into your broader financial picture, let's talk. I can help you think through the financial decisions that matter most.

Edward Jones financial advisors are not lawyers and cannot provide legal advice. A cohabitation agreement is a legally binding document that should be created with the assistance of a qualified lawyer or legal professional. We can help you understand how your financial decisions today connect to your long-term goals and work alongside your legal advisor to support your overall financial strategy.

Do you need a cohabitation agreement? And if so, what should it include? Before we answer those questions, let's first ask, what is a cohabitation agreement?

One of the most common questions about Old Age Security (OAS) is when to start taking it. The standard age is 65, but you can delay until age 70. Each choice affects how much you receive.

Starting at 65 means you begin receiving income earlier. But if you delay, your monthly payments increase by 0.6% for each month you wait, up to a maximum 36% increase at age 70.

So which option is right for you? It depends on several factors unique to your situation. Your current tax rate matters. If you're still working or have other significant income, delaying might make sense. Your total income matters too, because OAS is subject to a clawback if your income exceeds certain thresholds.

If you're approaching 65 and wondering when to start your OAS, reach out. I can help you evaluate your options based on your personal circumstances.
