I keep getting Questions about WHY I withdraw from the TFSA only to put it back in the following year? - Sorry I did not really discuss it in the video... but you need to understand that my wife and I are RETIRED and Financially FREE, living off Passive Income from our Investments ! So we do it BECAUSE WE LIVE OFF THE INCOME! In addition, We only "WITHDRAW" the Dividends/Distributions from the TFSA accounts every month to pay our bills. We do the same thing with our 2 Cash accounts (Non-Registered ) . Then when the new year begins , we once again MAX out our TFSA's to increase the AMOUNT OF tax-free INCOME WE GENERATE. We never touch the "Principle" we only extract the Interest. If you don't need the Income (because you're still working at a dumb JOB you hate), you can simply reinvest it manually within the account or DRIP it :) OF course just leaving it in the TFSA on drip is more “efficient” but please stop thinking only about money and accounting . Of course I can just leave it in the tfsa and make it grow more efficiently! But I want to live life to the Fullest and the more passive income I have the better my life is ! I’m retired at 36 in Panama right now : if you don’t see that as a “benefit “ there’s something wrong with you .

@Mark Vanderhelm, take this case: 1. Someone’s annual spending is $70K; 2. Annual Investment income is 100K total (50K from cash account; 50K from TFSA). In this case, the person would need to withdraw 20K from TFSA every year, because 50K income from cash is not enough. The following year, the person would transfer cash account investments to TFSA. Eventually, all the cash investments would be moved and all 100K investment income would be tax free

Be careful, this is still investing in stocks and stocks are not fixed-income investments. They are intrinsically risky. One could well get their cash flows but lose the principal. This would be a problem because one would need to sell all of their positions eventually. The true upside of this style of investing is convenience instead of stability. Because it frees you from manually selling the growth of your stocks for cash incomes. Of course, this comes with costs like management fees and fewer growth potentials.

You make it sound like this is some back-door way of getting extra TFSA room. However if you don't need the income, then isn't it better to just leave your TFSA alone and keep re-investing the income immediately. Then add the annual contribution on January 1st. I know you are an income investor but I think you should emphasize this a bit more when giving advice.

I didn't realize that I would be liable for capital gains tax when I transfer stocks from my non-registered account to my TFSA. Allthough, when I think about it, this is reasonable. However, I'm rather puzzled that I wouldn't be able to apply capital loss credit if I transferred losing position to my TFSA. I guess it doesn't matter, that's just tax law. I'm guessing that if you wanted to "harvest" any loss, it would be better to sell the losing stock in your non-registered account and then transfer the cash to your TFSA (of course, keeping in mind brokerage fees and the 30 day requirement for re-purchase). Does this make sense?

Exactly. On the one hand, if you took out ~$10k last year and contribute ~$16k in the new year, then you didn't actually need to take out that $10k. In fact, you could have grown EVEN MORE room by re-investing all dividend (or similar) income sooner, which would have produced even more in year dividends and capital growth. On the other hand, psychologically I get the appeal. It feels like to have ACCESSIBLE passive income going into one's checking account. Personally I take out small loans on my line of credit to max out investment accounts. I then use the income to pay down that loan to bring down the amount of leverage. I get the appeal even if technically and mathematically speaking it makes more sense to keep all that income in the TFSA.

I've ran the numbers in a few different ways, but I still can't see what the advantage is over just reinvesting the income within the TFSA initially and maxing the 6k per year. If you are thinking of it as a conversion strategy (from taxable to tax-free) it still doesn't work, as either you either withdraw the dividends (losing their earnings in the TFSA for the portion of the year removed), but then you are just restoring the room that already would have already been put to work when you do your transfer from the Non-reg to the TFSA. Obviously if you are using the TFSA income for living expenses, then it is consumed, but there isn't much of a tax-difference from reinvestment within the TFSA and having an outside taxed source of funds which is needed to create the funds in order to make the "extra payment". You could have grown the principle within the TFSA simply by leaving the funds in.

@@PassiveIncomeInvesting I've read the comment (and thread) but the math still don't work unless you are in the pure drawdown phase. For instance, lets say you are 20 years in and taking out 30k out from the TFSA. In order to do the strategy you would need to have either 30k of old stocks (taxed) or actively earn 30k aftertax just to get back to zero. If you had all of those existing already taxed stocks, then you could have just liquidated them to pay for lifestyle. This makes a bit of sense for those fully in their retirements, but its not for those actively earning their way up to retirement. Koodos to you for being retired at 36, but that doesn't change the math for those in the accumulation phase.
@chrisharrison89782 жыл бұрын
You could have sold the automotive finco in the non-reg to pay for life, and then as the dividends accumulated in the TFSA, then bought Automotive Finco to replace it. Same tax effect between the liquidation for lifestyle purposes (FMV less Adjusted cost base) as the in-kind contribution to the TFSA. So you could wind down your non-reg account for life purposes and reinvest the TFSA over a number of years and it would still work out to be the same (or less, due to the period of time of not being re-invested in the TFSA). Then finally once the non-reg hit zero, and the TFSA had X number of years to compound on itself, then you could take all of your lifestyle requirements solely from the TFSA and still possibly qualify for government programs based on income (which you'd have none).

Very helpful Adrian. Margin account is what you call as cash account in TD, right? I moved a tiny position to TFSA following your video and it was on heavy loss. Question, what is the prinicipal transfer, the original amount X that was used to buy the Stock or the current price Y that was used during transfer?

Great content but If you have enough assets outside of your TFSA to live off don’t withdraw any money from the TFSA so it all compounds tax free. The money you took out was not compounding and the money that is generating income outside of your TFSA and RRSP is taxed.

Thank you! It is really interesting option of transferring investments in-kind between TFSA and unregistered account. I wonder that you use TD with its steep transaction fee (I pay $9.99 per transaction). Have you consideed moving to National Bank for example with no transaction fee? Another thing that make me wonder: you mentioned that you don't get tax decrease when moving losing position to TFSA. But then why not sell the losing position first at unregistered account, collect Tax refund and then move cash to TFSA and repurchase the same position? I probably miss something. Thank you again.

I have a question about In Kind transfer. Eg. I bought 10 shares of Tesla in my Cash account for $700/share and now it's worth $1000/share. When I do the In Kind transfer, it moves the amount that the share is worth about the time of transfer say $10,000, so my TFSA contribution will be $10,000. I leave it in my TFSA for 2 more years and it grows to $20,000, do I have to pay the tax on it or is it totally tax free? Thanks

Today, I just moved a bunch of AC stock into my TFSA from my non-registered account. I was told the transaction would go through at the previous day's closing price. Plus, if I transfer a Stock, and there were gains, It must be reported just as if you sold the stock. Thanks, Adrian for the video.😁

yeah, that's my big question too - if it was legal to buy something in a cash account and have it grow in value for any amount of time, and then slip it into a TFSA at the very end tax-free, wouldn't that basically imply that you could have infinite tax-free investments? I feel like that... can't possibly be how that works, legally. EDIT: I just googled it, and you definitely pay capital gains disposition on stocks moved 'in kind' like this

Yes you do need to have the cash. I just did that with a RRIF. If you transfer cash, you can use the % to figure out cash needed. If you transfer in-kind, the bank holds back a higher % for taxes. Phone the folks that look after your account and have them tell you how much for taxes.

CRA does allow you to carry capital losses back up to 3 years so if you had a capital gain in any of those 3 years you can offset them which usually results in some tax back. Not sure if the IRS has a similar option. In addition, if you were also considering selling a position that would trigger a capital gain, doing it in the same year as selling a loss position would reduce the overall net capital gain/loss.
