Tax-free savings accounts are available for Canadian residents who are 18 years of age or older. The first tax year that they were available was 2009.
There is no deadline for contributions to a TFSA, as the unused contribution room is carried forward into the next year. However, a withdrawal in any year increases the TFSA room in the following calendar year. Thus, if you are thinking of making a withdrawal close to year end, make sure it is done by December 31st, in order to have the withdrawal amount added back to the TFSA room sooner.
In a tax-free savings account:
All investment income (interest, dividends, trust distributions and capital gains) will accumulate tax free
Considering this all capital losses are not tax deductible, and
not eligible for Canadian dividend tax credits
Interest on money borrowed to invest in TFSA is not tax deductible
Contributions are not tax deductible
Excess contribution are subject to 1% monthly tax
Contributions are reported directly to CRA by your financial institution (ask your tax professional for your details)
2017 contribution annual limit is $5,500, for total of $52,000 contribution room
2015 limit $10,000
2013-2014 limit $5,500 annually
2009-2012 limit $5,000 annually
Withdrawals are not taxable

Can name a spouse or common-law partner as “successor holder” and on death the spouse keeps tax exempt status without affecting the spouse’s contribution room
