Halfway through the year and thinking about RRSPs?
Perhaps the summer months are a good time to consider the RRSP contributions made earlier this year? Was it a rushed decision? Did you buy the first thing that came along or just parked the money to get the tax deduction? If so, this is perhaps the best time to review your RRSP plans.

At Fiscal Agents, we believe saving and investing for a comfortable retirement is a year-round pursuit. Starting early in someone's lifetime can mean big rewards later on.

Missed claiming a Capital loss in prior years? Tax Court says it’s not too late, so re-file
The Canadian tax system only allows for the deduction of capital losses against capital gains for such investments as mutual funds, bonds, stocks and other securities. If an investor has no capital gains within the current tax year any capital loss can be carried back three years or forward indefinitely to offset capital gains in those years.

However, it has been common practice to report any such losses within the then current tax year even through they cannot used, as to make them available for carry back or carry forward purposes.

Taking advantage of the Financial Services Revolution
Since the early 1990's the Canadian banking sector has undergone a service revolution and has moved away from trying to satisfy all its customers with a "one-size-fits-all" approach, which didn't really fit. Instead, thanks in large part to new information technology and a greater ability to process information and data quickly, today's top banks can provide tailored financial services designed to meet the specific needs of each of its customers. So what does this mean for you? In a word: Savings.

Question: Is a Codicil a new Will?

Answer: Not quite. A Codicil is an amending document. The codicil is to make minor revisions, as an example, if a Power of Attorney is included within the Will and individual resigns. A codicil will note who has the new PoA. If the Will has a large number of codicil's, and to keep a clear directional path, have a new will written. The definition of a codicil is provided below:

Codicil: An instrument in writing executed by a testator for adding to, altering, explaining or confirming a will previously made by the testator; executed with the same formalities as a will; and having the effect of bringing the date of the will forward to the date of codicil.
