What Counts as a TFSA Excess Contribution?
Your TFSA contribution room = (all annual limits you’ve accrued) − (all contributions you’ve made) + (prior-year withdrawals added back on Jan 1). If your deposits at any time exceed that room—by even $1—you’ve over-contributed. The CRA then applies a 1% per-month tax on the month’s highest excess balance until you remove it or the next year’s room absorbs it.

Understanding TFSA excess contribution is essential. Learn how to avoid penalties and maximize your savings wisely.

If you own shares in your own company — maybe a small incorporated business or professional corporation — you’ve probably heard the term “shareholder benefits” before.

It sounds simple, but when it comes to taxes, this is one area where the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) keeps a close eye.

In plain language, a shareholder benefit is when your company gives you something of personal value — like paying your phone bill or letting you use a company car — and you don’t fully pay for it. CRA may then say, “That’s a taxable benefit.”

Discover the insights on shareholder benefits and CRA tax regulations. Protect yourself from audits and penalties.

We’ve written it for self-employed professionals, employees, and incorporated owners across Canada.

Learn about RRSP excess contribution and how to avoid penalties. Discover steps to fix contributions and protect your refund.

An RRSP contribution is money (or qualifying assets) you deposit into your Registered Retirement Savings Plan. This contribution can be deducted from your taxable income in the year you claim it (subject to limits). Investments inside the RRSP grow tax‑deferred until you withdraw.
