TFSA

Tax free and stress free savings

With a Tax Free Savings Account (TFSA), any earnings your savings bring in are tax-free. With its flexible features, a TFSA can help you achieve short or long-term goals.

How a TFSA works:

  • Any Canadian (age of majority or older) with a valid SIN number can open a TFSA.
  • Invest up to your TFSA contribution limit. This year, the limit is $6,500, but if you have unused contribution room from previous years, you may be able to invest more.
  • Fill your TFSA with a mix of savings and investments. Options include savings accounts, GICs, mutual funds*, stocks*, bonds*, and more.
  • Don’t pay tax on any growth earned inside your TFSA account (including interest, dividends and capital gains).
