First Home Savings

Overview

The First Home Savings Account (FHSA) is a unique savings tool in Canada designed to help first-time homebuyers save up for their first property. Launched in 2023, it combines the best features of RRSPs and TFSAs, allowing Canadians who are 18 years or older and who qualify as first-time homebuyers to contribute up to $8,000 per year, with a lifetime limit of $40,000.

Key features
  • Tax-Deductible Contributions: Like an RRSP, contributions to an FHSA are tax-deductible, which can reduce your taxable income
  • Tax-Free Growth and Withdrawals: Similar to a TFSA, any investment growth in the account is tax-free. Withdrawals are also tax-free, as long as they're used for purchasing a first home
  • Flexible Investment Options: The FHSA allows a wide range of investments, from GICs, stocks and bonds to mutual funds, making it adaptable to different savings strategies
