Hey Rob ☺️

[@Alexedmartin.]

Reducing your tax liability is a smart financial move. It's all about strategic investments and leveraging tax-saving opportunities. I've seen significant benefits by diversifying my portfolio and taking advantage of tax-efficient investment vehicles. It's not about avoiding taxes, but rather optimizing them to maximize your wealth. I wasnt financial free until my 40’s and I’m still in my 40’s, bought my second house already, earn on a monthly through passive income and got 4 out of 5 goals, just hope it encourages someone that it doesn’t matter if you don’t have any of them right now, you can start TODAY regardless your age INVEST and change your future! Investing is a grand choice I made

[@Alexedmartin]

Indeed, successful investing often requires a solid foundation of knowledge. In my journey, I've found that having a trusted financial consultant is key, especially when it comes to selecting the right assets. I've been working with Regina Louise Collaro, an investment advisor associated with a licensed wealth management firm, and my financial experience has significantly improved. Her reputation in the industry is quite remarkable, and her guidance has led to financial stability and regular passive income. I highly recommend considering an experienced investment advisor for your financial goals.

[@Alexedmartin.]

Regina Louise Collaro is based in the United States and can work with anybody wherever they stay. If you would like more information on reaching her, you can conduct a search online.

[@ugojazzy7812]

personally, I'm blessed and realizing I'm not the only one working with Regina Louise Collaro. I will consider myself lucky. I've been able to feed and make a living through her advice and great work. For such a person as Regina, I owe her gratitude, support and endless prayers as it is not easy to gain access to such a competent and reliable adviser. Who isn't just wise but has all it takes to handle an investment and is good at what she does.

[@emeldcentor1474]

I have had the intentions of starting investing. But I always thought it was late and I think I need to stop procrastinating. I will definitely 🔍 Regina Louise Collaro and see what she can advise .Thanks a lot . This was of so much help to me.

If I leave Canada and become a non resident, the CRA charges an additional 10% as "withholding tax " to make a total 25% tax on my CPP and OAS. They effectively tax pensioners a penalty tax for having the cheek to ditch Canada and leave. Is there a way to reduce this so-called withholding tax from 25%??

[@yassingurhan6204]

Conclusion I got out of this scenario for donations: Seen a video explaining that if a resident of Canada made a million dollars annually, they’d pay half of the income earned in income taxes. So if I were to pay 500k in donations to a charitable organization, I would get a tax credit return for the percentages mentioned above. Federal - 200 x 15% and beyond the 200 dollars(500k in this case) would amount to = 145,230 dollars given back to me Provincial - 200 x 10% and beyond the 200 once again(500k) would amount to = 105,020 Resulting in 250,250 dollars being saved in taxes am I correct ?

[@BAMInternational3]

Excellent insight and tips

[@ThomasCChan]

Thank you!

[@Jay-le5ok]

So for 8:36 I can’t get my head around it say you made $1400 and decide to donate $700 you got tax deductible of $300 and say your tax rate is 50% than (-700*0.5*0.5)+300 remaining 125 deductible will not be given by cash so your total income is 700 But if you just pay tax on full 1400 then you get to take home 1400*.5*.5=1050 So why would anyone do that?

[@grasshoppervision1338]

Hi Thomas please do make some video on RESP for children.

Thomas said, "Even with ever increasing taxes, Canada is still in huge deficit". Seems 'someone' needs to learn more from you than any of us here, Thomas.

[@nomadchad8243]

what now bugs me is that 50-70K used to be a good income and was taxed at 18-22% ish.... now 100 to 150K is a good income and its taxed at 44-50 % . So now It seems were just being punished for making middle class income.

Hi Thomas , I find your videos very informative and hope to work with you in the future. I have two questions. If I am only renting, and buy a rental property, can I assign the rental property as my principal residence to avoid capital gain tax even though I wouldn’t live there? Secondly, would there be any tax implication to invest in ON if I live in BC? Thank you very much in advance!

[@ThomasCChan]

Hi John. Thanks and sounds good 1. You can't rent out the property and call principal residence. As you needs to reside. Cra can easily proof if you use record living in there. Yes as in they will be using On tax bracket instead of bc

Hi Thomas...great content. ..thank you. ..can you give information on how to withdraw your RRSPS without paying or lowering the withholding tax especially when you retire early. ..thank you

[@ThomasCChan]

Hi Auriel, Let's have a chat to see if it's applies to your situation. www.thomascchan.com/thomas

[@aurielsmith8753]

Ok I will check out the link below

[@WATCHLLS]

Hey Ariel, if you or a family member is eligible for the disability tax credit you can withdraw money from an RRSP and receive the taxes back via the DTC. Also if you have a low income year move RRSP funds to your TFSA as the first $15000 of income is tax free (basic exemption) Some folks who have a large RRSP will even retire at 60 and remove funds from there RRSP from age 60 to 65 at a very low or tax free income level.

Maybe i'm wrong here, but in todays world, the young generation like the gen-Z likes to see their investments in shorter time frames like in a 15 to 20 years growth. The Dave Ramsey Show on youtube gives out 15 to 20 years investment plans, but i know it's a US financial planning show.

[@WATCHLLS]

Not sure if you realize it, but only paying yourself in dividends will effect the amount of CPP benefit’s at age 65. As your CPP benefit’s are based on employment income.

[@christianduval9067]

@@WATCHLLS The CPP calculate your benefit base on the best 10 years of working....... You can also ask the CPP to send you a report of your contribution with the amount you will received at your retirement.
