How the
TFSA Works 
- Starting
in 2009, Canadians aged 18 and older can save up to $5,000 every
year in a TFSA.
- Contributions
to a TFSA will not be deductible for income tax purposes but
investment income, including capital gains, earned in a TFSA
will not be taxed, even when withdrawn.
- Unused TFSA
contribution room can be carried forward to future years.
- You can
withdraw funds from the TFSA at any time for any purpose.
- The amount
withdrawn can be put back in the TFSA the next year or later without
reducing your contribution room.
- Neither
income earned in a TFSA nor withdrawals will affect your eligibility
for federal income-tested benefits and credits.
How Is a TFSA Different From a Registered Retirement Savings
Plan?
An RRSP is primarily intended for retirement. The TFSA is like
an RRSP for everything else in your life .
Both plans offer tax advantages, but they have key differences.
- Contributions
to an RRSP are deductible and reduce your income for tax purposes.
In contrast, your TFSA savings will not be deductible.
- Withdrawals
from an RRSP are added to your income and taxed at current rates.
Your TFSA withdrawals and growth within your account will not-they
will be tax-free.
