8. Help clients navigate the tax landscape across investment types with Equitable With tax time in full swing, you’re invited to a helpful webcast that will explain how different investment types are taxed. This will give you simple language you can use to build clearer conversations with clients.

   • Registered plans (which shelter or defer tax):
        • RRSP: Contributions offset taxable income. Taxes are deferred until withdrawals are made.
        • RRIF/LIF: All withdrawals are taxable.
        • FHSA: Contributions, withdrawals, and transfers appear on T4FHSA/Relevé 32.
        • TFSA:  Helps your investments grow tax-free.

   • Non‑registered plans (which are taxed yearly):
        • Income is taxed each year (not deferred). 
        • Reporting usually comes through T3 or T5 slips.
