What an interesting content i must say! I'm a father of two who bought a house last year. For me, it was a major turning point! In addition to feeling the effects of the economic downturn, I'm lucky enough to enjoy a respectable monthly income from wise investments that I've made. I have therefore meticulously prepared for my retirement following my children's graduation from college.

Wow, very intriguing! Currently, I am looking for investing ideas or recommendations. Earlier this year, I hesitated and did not take any action till now. However, I am motivated to try something new because I am quite open to other investing opportunities. I want to retire in my forties or fifties. I sincerely wish I could achieve what you've accomplished, and I believe it will happen.

Working with a skilled financial planner can be compared to having a mentor in the field of finance. I used to struggle to invest on my own and ended up losing money, but things changed once I started working with Claire Martha Magalhaes. She played a pivotal role in helping me improve my financial situation. Previously, I relied solely on my job and salary for income, but now I have found ways to generate additional income with ease, which has allowed me to leave traditional employment. Nowadays, I believe that investing is not a choice, but a necessity for anyone who desires financial independence and a good quality of life.

Great vid, can you please help clarify one point I’ve been struggling to understand. Issue - RC725 form requires details of the home to make an eligible withdrawal which takes 3-5 business days to process. Meanwhile earnest money deposit has to be done within a day or 2 at max of finalizing the agreement. Which means you won’t be able to pay EMD using FHSA funds. So how can someone circumnavigate this issue. Possible solution- Can I pay EMD using cash in my chequing account and later add that same amount to FHSA account and withdraw when I close this giving me enough time to make an eligible withdrawal? In this case would I be eligible for tax deduction on the entire amount in my FHSA? Question 2- Do I have to prove later to CRA where I used the funds from FHSA, like submit all receipts be it down payment, closing costs, renovations etc? Thank you so much whoever takes the time to understand and respond to this. ❤ it’s an issue all of us will face when withdrawing

I am not a financial expert or a lawyer, but my interpretation is: All you need to do is to qualify for the account and follow the rules of the account. You can do what you want with your new home, provided you are following all laws. EG: some condo owners may follow rules of the "Homeowners Association" for that condominium, and some duplexes may have the legal definition as a condo. HOA are less powerful in Canada than the USA, but make sure to ask your realtor about that stuff when looking at new homes.

Great video ! Is a duplex eligible for a FHSA withdraw ? The CRA website has a vague definition or qualified homes and it could be interpreted both ways....Any hindsight ? *apartments in duplexes, triplexes, fourplexes, or apartment buildings*. Some people argue that its the same definition than the HBP, which allows a withdraw for a duplex.

HBP they need the money to sit in the RRSP account for 90 days ( I believe) to withdraw. Because last time when I purchase a portion of my money was sitting there for only 87 days and I couldn’t get the full 35k outta it. Does FHSA have a period that they hold your money?

I’m an immigrant and currently processing my permanent residency. I was doubtful if I was eligible to open an account as a non-resident but upon further research, I can open an account as long as by the time of withdrawal I am already a resident of Canada. If I am still non-resident and I do need to withdraw the money it will be taxable. Just an FYI for my fellow immigrants that are Temporary Residents. So don’t let this stop you from opening your account.
