This is version has been updated as of June 2023. Are you looking to protect your heirs and disinherit Revenue Canada? Then this book is for you, find out how to protect your family at a time when they are likely at their most vulnerable, and could be paying the biggest tax bill they will ever see. This book has been updated to reflect the Oct 2016 changes made by CRA to claiming the Principal residence deduction. There are only two things in life that are certain, Death and Taxes. While each of these is bad enough on its own, when combined it's a double whammy. The Success Tax that I am referring to is the tax that we pay if we are successful in our investing and have assets that are going to be taxable when sold or when deemed to have been sold. The Success Tax takes one of two forms. The first form is deferred taxation on registered products such as RSPs, GRSPs, LRSPs, RIFs, LIFs and other similar retirement tax-sheltered vehicles. The second form of the Success Tax is the tax on deferred Capital Gains. This tax affects such assets as stocks, mutual funds, art, antiques, collectibles, real estate, private businesses and sometimes even bonds. While there is no hiding from the Success Tax, there are several things that can be done to help legally reduce or even eliminate the amount that your estate or your heirs pay. The Success Tax Shuffle is not a way of avoiding taxes that are legally due, nor is it a donation tax scheme. The Success Tax Shuffle is the process of arranging your assets and affairs in order to take advantage of the current tax laws, tax credits, deductions and other estate planning tools with a view to reducing or even eliminating the Success Tax. This will allow more of your hard-earned assets to go to those you love and not those you love to hate. It's your money you have earned it, now is the time to take the steps that are required to protect it. You can estimate your Success Tax by visiting http: //www.yoursuccesstax.ca/
