Transcript: What is a TFSA? Simply put, a tax-free savings account, or TFSA, is a type of savings account to help save for any need. How does a TFSA work? A TFSA doesn’t have to be a savings account at a bank. A TFSA can contain a variety of investments like: bonds, stocks, mutual funds, and exchange-traded funds. Money, or contributions, that you put into a TFSA, are made with after-tax dollars. This means you’ve already paid income tax, and won’t need to pay again when you make withdrawals in the future. Plus, you won’t pay tax on any investment growth in your TFSA. Whether you’re saving for a dream vacation, your first home, or your retirement, a TFSA can help. What is your TFSA contribution limit? A contribution limit is the maximum amount you can add to your TFSA each year. The annual TFSA contribution limit changes from year to year. The federal government determines these limits. You’re entitled to the lifetime contributions for every year after you turn 18 and are a Canadian resident. For example, let’s say you don’t have a TFSA and were 18 in 2009, when the government introduced the TFSA. In this case, if you were a Canadian resident throughout that entire time, you’d have full contribution room available. But if you became a Canadian resident in 2015, you’d start gaining contribution room then. The best way to find out how much you can contribute to your TFSA is through the Canada Revenue Agency. Whenever you need it, a TFSA is a smart way to save, and see your savings grow – tax-free. Find more tips and tools at sunlife.ca.

Transcript: What is an RRSP? Simply put, a Registered Retirement Savings Plan, or RRSP, is a type of savings account that helps Canadians save for their retirement. How does an RRSP work? You can hold a variety of investments in your RRSP, like: stocks, bonds, GICs, and mutual funds. Any contributions or growth within your RRSP help you defer taxable income. This means you can defer taxes this year when you contribute, and defer taxes on any investment growth, until you choose to access the funds. For most, withdrawing from your RRSP at a later point in life means paying less tax. Think of it this way: you’ll probably be in a lower tax bracket when you’re retired in your 60s or 70s. So you’ll be paying less tax when you withdraw from your RRSP at that age. What’s your RRSP contribution limit? Your yearly contribution limit is 18% of your earned income, plus unused room from earlier years. Any money you put into an RRSP, up to the limit, reduces your taxable income for that year. Your RRSP contribution limit is calculated each year and will appear on the Notice of Assessment you receive after filing your taxes. For more tips and tools, visit sunlife.ca.
