    And I’m day trading with $4000 and withdraw my profits of $400 daily
    Is it taxable?

    Yes, ADAM, a friend and I were discussing this withdrawal issue when withdrawing the "gains" and if it could be put back. Looks like another viewer below had a similar question. It was answered.

    I was confused about the contribution room you get back in the next calendar year until I saw your video. Thank you. But just want to discuss an interesting case someone post online, for example, a perosn contributed the maxmium room he has in TFSA, and his account increased to 1 million, if he pull out this 1 million in 2021, he will get 1 million contribution room + annual room for 2022 in the calender year 2022, this is how I think tfsa should work. May I ask has CRA explained or provided any confirmation related to this?

    • @ParallelWealth

    So if someone has never put in a TFSA and have a total of $70,000 room but only put in $5,000 and it grows to $10,000 and you pull out the $10,000, that $10,000 room wouldn’t come back until the next calendar year but you could put in still the current year $60,000? Then the $10,000 next year?

    • @ParallelWealth
      @ParallelWealth  2 роки тому +3

      Correct..plus you would get additional 6k new room following year. So technically 16k following year.

      I have another question … if I already maximize the contribution 60000$ for this year and it made 3000$ gains to the portfolio and I don’t want to withdraw any money…. So what should be the amount of contribution for next year ?

  • @therealsparkman
    @therealsparkman 11 місяців тому

    I maximized my TFSA contribution in early 2022 when I received some money from my mother's estate following her passing in late 2021. I wasn't sure what exactly to do with it, so I opted to put it into the TFSA. That was a mistake. Since then, it has dropped $15K in value. While I think that a TFSA is a good idea with the ideology, I'm not convinced that the value of it hinges on the markets, so it can be hit or miss.
    Looking back, I should have thought it through a bit more before opting for this idea.

  • @bbbella2960

    How do you withdraw from your TFSA? If I withdraw 88k, when does it need to be paid back by before penalties? My cra account shows 88k, I read online that you should be able to withdraw from online banking from overview tab and click on TFSA tab but I don't have the option on my online banking.

    • @ParallelWealth
      @ParallelWealth  3 роки тому +1

      CRA online will tell you, but it's not always accurate. If you check now it won't show any 2021 contributions and it might even be missing 2020. But if you have your 2020 and 2021 numbers you could cross reference what CRA has and come up with your number.

    Ok so say if I was maxed out right now and had the full limit of 75500 in there , if I withdraw the whole amount of 75500 in December of this year I would be allowed to recontribute the whole 75500 in january of 2022 plus whatever contribution room for the next year

    • @ParallelWealth
      @ParallelWealth  3 роки тому +1

      Paul, yes this is correct. Assuming your investment is valued at exactly 75500 in December this year. If it was worth more or less, whatever amount you redeem is the amount added back the following calendar year, plus new contribution room.

    @parallel wealth: Hi last year I saw my contribution room $34000. Till December I added $21700 in my TFSA and I was 40% down which was approx $13020. Therefore my new contribution room should be $25320 + 6000 was new year from January right? But it shows $19000 this year? Do you think why it is that? I did not take out any money yet.

    I contributed $17,000 to my TFSA
    I have growth of $26,000 in my TFSA
    I removed $1000 to open my daughter an RESP.
    Does the $1000 withdrawal come out of my contribution room or did it come out as growth?

  • @loucadufault6549
    @loucadufault6549 3 роки тому +1

    So after seeing a financial adviser to open a portfolio and savings account under a TFSA, they told me something along the lines of: "if you open the savings in the TFSA then the gains aren't taxed, but you crystallize that contribution room." They essentially said it was not worth it to take up room for such a low yield savings account.
    Do savings accounts function differently? If all the money I have available fits below my available contribution room (including the backlog from a few years), is there any downside to opening the savings account under the TFSA?
    Thanks. And the video was very informative btw.

    For example, if I invest 1000 dollars initially (considering its my tfsa limit) and now i have 1500 in tfsa and i sell all the stocks and buy new stocks. So now my contribution is 1500 or is it still 1000 ?

Do you think that the tfsa is a good solution at this moment and will it recover or the war and huge raises in fuel costs and the whole situation with sanctions to Russia will only make it drop even more so should I take it out now and just take the loss before it will get worst? I should add that this multi-holding TFSA account.

    I appreciate the video! Such great content! Wondering one thing though. If you have stocks in your TFSA that you sell at a loss, but don't take the funds out of the TFSA, It's not a loss yet, correct? So you could potentially reinvest them for a gain, then take them out?

    • @ParallelWealth
      @ParallelWealth  3 роки тому +3

      Correct. It really is a moot point whether you redeem or not (other than not being able to invest that money until Jan1 the following year). If you lose money on a stock and sell it, you now have a set number of dollars to invest, whether you leave it or not. Hope that makes sense.

How does this new high water mark benefit me? If I withdraw 50k in 2022, and my value drops 20k, come 2023 I will still only be able to return the 50k plus the 2023 new amount (say 6k).

    Hi good sir! What happens if you have multiple different investments in your TFSA (say 10k worth) and let’s say, 2K investment shrunk to 300, you sell and pull it out.. how does that affect room? According to your estimates that would lose 1700 of room permanently BUT how is that figured out when you have multiple different investments? Just confused as to how that’s auto figured out when say that 300 you pull out is clearly a 1700 loss, but can they differentiate that from say a 20$ investment that grew to 300?

    • @ParallelWealth
      @ParallelWealth  2 роки тому

      You would have lost the $1700 from that investment - but there is a chance the others made up for it. Example - if you had another investment that had $300 that grew to $2k, then your account value and possible room would stay the same in your example.

So, for TD Bank I want to deposit $30,000 by end of November and sell the $30,000 by end of December. Hence, would this mean I would have a new contribution room of 2023 of $60,500? Thank you!!
