2 Income earned in a TFSA is not subject to Canadian taxes. Taxes of other countries may apply. Contributions to Tax-Free Savings Accounts (TFSAs) are limited annually. Generally, the maximum contribution room for a year is equal to the total of unused contribution room from the previous year, distributions made in the previous year and the TSFA dollar limit for the year. The maximum annual contribution applies to all your TFSAs held with HSBC Bank Canada or any other financial institution. Only Canadian residents, who are over 18 years of age and have a valid Social Insurance Number, can make contributions to a TFSA. The age of majority is 19 for residents of Newfoundland & Labrador, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, British Columbia, Northwest Territories, Yukon, and Nunavut, which may delay the opening of a TFSA. However, the accumulation of contribution room will start at age 18. You are solely responsible for determining whether any contribution to your TFSA or other registered plan account is within your contribution limit. Consult your tax advisor for full details about TFSAs and how they relate to your tax situation. Contact the Canada Revenue Agency CRA website or call 1-800-267-8272 for full details on personal taxes, benefits and trusts including TFSAs..
