Great topic. As someone self employed like me ( cpp is not collected ) would you recommend me contribute separately to it if it s possible in Canada , like maxing out for the future?! I invest and I will reach my goal by 60 . Just wondering if would be any advantage paying CPP and OAS .thank you in advance .
Hi Carol. I'd check with your accountant on this... CPP isn't an 'optional' program, so even if you're self employed, you contribute to the plan, assuming you're paying yourself some salary. As for OAS, you don't pay into it directly, it's part of the overall tax system, so you will collect if you otherwise qualify. - Marc
Never thought I’d leave Canada but my wife and I have pretty well had enough. Cost of living and taxation is insane. Our current federal government has destroyed the future here.
I just wanna say.. us Canadians are so damn lucky to have this channel. seriously, when I started to learn how to invest I couldn’t find one single Canadian RUclips channel for investing, u guys are a blessing I’m learning so much, I’m always recommending ur channel when my friends ask me about investing
I just made the seniors list. Waiting on my first CPP/OAS/GIS direct deposit. SARS2 killed my savings after 2 years. Forget retiring in comfort I'm just hoping to survive. Your incite would've helped 3yrs ago but I'll take what I can get now. Liked, commented and SUBSCRIBED !!!
About Tax Treaties...I have been fighting CRA for 3 years now about the treaty they have with South Korea. I have lived and worked in South Korea for 13 years. CRA are refusing to honor the treaty between Canada/South Korea enacted in 1977 and still in effect. They dock my OAS, again refusing to honor the 1977 treaty. And they refuse to ajust my CPP, again ignoring the 1977 treaty. So...In my opinion treaty or no treaty...If the CRA refuses to honor them; what are there use? In more blunt terms...this government does what ever the hell it wants. We are planning to go back to South Korea.
Thanks Marc, very useful info. One point though that I think needs to be explained when describing the OAS clawback is the parameters are based on NET income. It is confusing when program thresholds for various programs differ between gross or net income, so it is very important in explantory videos such as yours that a clear distinction is drawn.
Great, I am also planning to buy some stock but I don’t know which is best for long term I am not use to stock investment, please help me or send me the best stock to buy for future at Least 1/2 yrs,btc is crashing before my pacient
We moved our mom to the Philippines because of her illness the weather was better there for her. and her and my dad would come back to Canada for a month and go back, after my dad died , my mom got worse and could not travel. The Canadian Government took25% at first and after a year it was 0, My mom worked her whole life, never took any help from Government. they didn't care that she couldn't travel, we had letter from her Doctor there saying if she travelled it would kill her and they still didn't care. So nice to see our government care more about refugees than its old
Great info! Thank you. My plan is to retire in Mexico because of the cheaper cost of living, no heating bill, no harsh winter and can garden all year around. Canada is too expensive to retire in.
Perfect season for this video! I like the Kaluha graphic. Although I plan on being on Vancouver Island, this video makes me think about living abroad for a year here and there. Thanks!
It is also worth mentioning that people should not plan to retire on shoestring budgets, based on assumptions that life will always be smooth; they should make provisions for emergencies and costs of living to go up, especially for countries like Mexico, where many want to retire. One has to be realistic about these things. Many people have to return to Canada/USA sometimes due to health issues in their final years. During that time, if you don’t have sufficient funds saved up, you are at the mercy of the govt and/or family, some of whom may not even be able to take care of your expenses. We were painting in a seniors hospital in Edmonton once during a renovation project we had been awarded. Trust me, you don’t want to be in that place. It is horrible. One solution to avoid this horrible situation would be to live in a seniors housing, in a place like Thailand, where there are nurses available 24hrs per day, and you are taken care of. It is cheaper and more pleasant than Canadian retirement homes, but you have to still have to pay good rent, and you have to be ready to not be able to see family members any more, except online. This requires you taking your mind to the level of letting go of “family life” as you currently know it. Are you ready for that? You better be. This video is great, by the way. Excellent presentation by Marc. Takeoff Experts.ca
Excellent comment. I'm an expat in MX. We certainly miss CDA free healthcare. Private health care in other countries is very expensive. Might have to return to Cda if major health issues pop-up.
@@lb9007 I disagree with you. It *can* be but is not necessarily expensive let alone 'very expensive'. Medical care in Malaysia and India is very affordable and excellent value.
A word of caution, the Chinese Gov has withheld pensions of people feeing the country. This could happen in other countries as the Governments take more control and democracy weakens. Never would I have believed that we live in a country that can get people fired or withhold participation in society for not getting a medical treatment. The last 2 yrs should have taught all of us that we should never assume that things as we know it will not be taken away arbitrarily without our consent. Please don't attack me for my comment....I am making the point that we should hope for the best and plan for the worst.
In many provinces, measles, mumps, rubella, tetinus, polio, etc...... are all mandatory, and have been for your entire life. Necessary vaccines aren't new. Freedom has always come with the cost.

Retirement in Latin America. My dream place, yeah. That's why I moved to Canada from Latin America, over 20 years ago. That old adage that the grass always looks greener at the other side of the fence is timeless.
Thank you so much for all that information! My husband and I are retiring to Malaga, Spain next month, we are both Canadian Citizen and I would like to know if we can still contribute to our TFSA if we retire to Spain. Thank you again!
Great video thanks. What about the Departure Tax? As I understand it, Canada is one of only three countries in the world with such a tax which assumes you have disposed of all your assets the day you leave (20%). Clarification would be most welcome.
Thank you so much for this great video! Could you please also let us know what are the impacts on our registered accounts if we choose to live abroad? Really appreciate it!
I would LOVE to know more about tax situations and advice for dual citizens of Canada and the US, there are barely any resources online that I can find!
If you have the 25% withholding tax taken for a year, do you get that back on your next tax return, if you have no income? Or is that tax just taken, and not given back?
Great question. It's a pre-payment, if you will, and then when you file your return it's all adjusted accordingly. It's an estimate, but ya, you get it back if that's your tax situation.
I'm going to retire to a country that is not included in the 93 countries list to which CPP and OAS do arrive by direct deposit. Should I get a residence permit in a neighboring country that is on the 93rd list to open local bank account there? Does Service Canada require documents about the my new place of residence or do they only need a bank account number? Thanks.
Thanks for the great info? Can you do a video on what do Canadians do if they are abroad? Where do I get assistance if I’m in the UK, about retirement and pensions? Thank you
I have been waiting for over 2 years to get my OAS. I live in the US now and the problem is Canada is waiting to get my quarterly earnings from the US Social Security. Canada has made numerous requests but has not received any response back. Does anybody else have this problem?
Isn't the rule, you can't be out more than 6 continuous months for GIS? You could be out of Canada for 5 months, come back for two months and then be out for 5 months again and still get the GIS couldn't you?
I'm curious about whether the CDN government is going to give you a lousy rate (like a major bank would) to convert the C$ monthly payment into the currency of the country in which you have retired? Maybe it's better to receive the funds in C$ in Canada and then convert yourself using an online currency company with better rates. Anyone done this comparison?
Hi John. That's a great question, and I've never looked into that. I'd have to imagine that the rate would be competitive, but maybe your strategy would be better? Has anyone else dealt with this? - Marc
I also have company Penison plan but they won't let me transfer it to a bank out of country when I move. who could help me with moving my money to another country?
Hi Marc suggestion on a topic us etf and it’s tax implication specifically on tfsa .how much do we as Canadian pay on the dividends as well as short term capital gain?..thankyou
hi sir, I have worked on a work visa for 5 years in Canada, do you any idea if I can get my CPP that I have contributed for these 5 years back as I am planning to move back to my country? thanks in advance.
What is "business income"? You still on a salary or are you claiming dividend payments? A lot of options when you own a business that let you work around bullshit gov't "rules". Plus, once you hit a certain age, you start collecting CPP/OAS/QPP no matter what...
When living in Canada you can live on around 55k mostly tax free (taxes paid by publicly traded company) when receiving eligible dividends. Is there a way to get same treatment when filling NR5 and tax return each year to get credited for most of the withholding ? It make no sense to me to have to pay 25% tax rate when you wouldn't have any tax liability as a Canadian resident.
It would be nice if you include sound on your show. I put closed captions and still I don't know if i got the whole information. Please be aware that the captions provided by YOU TUBE are very bad. Greetings from Toronto.
Thanks for the very nice videos on various investing and retirement info in Canada. If you ever have a chance to do a video on "Covered call ETFs" and applying a leverage or modest leverage. Dividends appear to be better than investing in regular ETS" (Example- HDIV) Thanks Your thoughts
Thanks for the refresher, I want to go home home every two years for a few months. Due to circumstances cannot do that still pay taxes in Canada just cross the Ts and dot the Is.🤠
Do you happen to have any more info on this subject you touched on..don’t see a link below? You said the CRA will take into account monies paid into SSI towards your CPP benefit. Does this pertain to permanent residents of Canada as well. My spouse is American but we reside in Canada. Just curious if my spouse is entitled to CPP even though employment has been strictly US
My mother has been residing in Canada since 1995 til now. Canada has denied OAS when she applied for it when she reached age 65. She is now 74 years old with zero income, and still not "qualified" for the OAS. Explain that! Our fearless and clueless leader has been pumping $$$ for refuges in $40,000 per annum per person. 74 year old Canadian gets denied OAS. I find this very strange. It has been 8 years of back and forth between Service Canada and my family, with no fruition. I have been supporting my mother with a single male income with the MAXIMUM tax bracket in MB. I do not qualify any tax benefit for supporting my family member who are denied of government benefits. I just do not believe this government will truly appreciate its citizens.
World income is taxed, and Canada signed in 2000 reciprocal tax information agreements with MOST Caribbean countries (especially Commonwealth members) and KNOW if you receive pensions from other countries.
Altogether Canada signed the agreements with 120 countries, I get my pension from Europe, but pay taxes in Canada and you can't hide it, so don't try...
Go on a short trip, then rent a place for one month. This way you get a feel for 'the lay of the land'. Do not believe anyone else 100%. Test the water yourself.
Flew over your head, you understood nothing. You can never lose CPP, whatever you contributed remains yours, no matter where you go. OAS is residency based and it depends on how long you lived in Canada. To get OAS abroad you need to have lived 20y in Canada at least.
@@robertz7294 Mexico is huge and has a variety of climate. Right now nights are cool in higher cities like CDMX, Guadalajara, Puebla. There is even the occasional snow in Sonora and Chihuahua. On the coasts it's beautiful right now, low humidity. But it is warm and humid during rainy season mid June to mid October.
I lived and worked in Quebec during the 70s, should I have filed separately for QPP? I have been living in Ontario from late 70s to current. I am now 10 years in retirement.
If you work for a non local business, i.e. you're paid by an employer in CDA/USA, you just don't declare anything to your short term host country. Here in MX, many digit nomads don't pay MX taxes unless you work for a MX employer.
Sorry about that. Strange though, because the issue is the right channel was not active... but the left channel is. You should be able to hear at least on the left side. - Marc
also, wondering about you and your dad's thoughts on life insurance vs. investing... esp now that brandon is both expecting and carrying a mortgage (i assume).
Great video. Thanks. I’ve always wondered about this: What happens if a Canadian citizen age ~50, goes to reside in a country like Thailand. The only income this person has is capital gains and dividends from stocks that he owns in a margin account. How is this income taxed? I just can’t find any good info on CRA website. Thanks in advance
Not sure of the specifics of Thailand from every tax angle. So you're saying you wouldn't get CPP or OAS? If that's the case, and your only income is from your margin account, probably best to consult an international tax accountant just to be safe. - Marc
@@edh6062 Canada withholds 25 percent wht on all income from within Canada. This can be lowered with a tax treaty. Capital gains are not in the income category. Thailand taxes in country income, and certain funds you bring in.

What happens if you leave Canada and you draw from your RRSPs? You are no longer a Canadian resident so do you still have to pay taxes?

how does one figure out or even start to learn about the funds needed to retire in a place like mexico?
Go on a short trip, then rent a place for one month. This way you get a feel for 'the lay of the land'. Do not believe anyone else 100%. Test the water yourself.
So if I lived for example in Canada let’s say 20 to 30 years and I move to Thailand I loose CPP but still get OAS? Correct?
My understanding based on above video is you can get cpp and oas but not is. If you make more than 79k they start clawing back oas
@@crippledgenius thank you 🙏
Flew over your head, you understood nothing. You can never lose CPP, whatever you contributed remains yours, no matter where you go. OAS is residency based and it depends on how long you lived in Canada. To get OAS abroad you need to have lived 20y in Canada at least.
Hello, I am wondering if this would apply to a Canadian forces pension as well. Thanks, Rob.
Yes. I am a retired RCAF living in Mexico.
I receive my monthly CF pension and 15% is taxed by Ottawa, no provincial taxes.
@@lb9007 Thank you Sir. I will look into it. This sounds promising. How is the weather?
@@robertz7294 Mexico is huge and has a variety of climate.
Right now nights are cool in higher cities like CDMX, Guadalajara, Puebla. There is even the occasional snow in Sonora and Chihuahua. On the coasts it's beautiful right now, low humidity. But it is warm and humid during rainy season mid June to mid October.
@@lb9007 One day I would like to live somewhere else, at least some of the time. Thanks.
@@lb9007 quite a difference from what Qc would have taxed you then!
I lived and worked in Quebec during the 70s, should I have filed separately for QPP? I have been living in Ontario from late 70s to current. I am now 10 years in retirement.
Can I move to Orlando,Florida when I am 65.? Thanks.
Is South Africa covered by the treaty?
thank you.
You're welcome! - Marc
HOW ABOUT IF AM GOING BACK IN PHILIPPINES---YOU THINK I WILL GET ALL MY PENSION JUST ASKING THANKS ALOT
How and when should I take my rrsp
Answer... don't worry about it, they aren't going to be around much longer at this rate
Is there any way of getting gis when retireing abroad?
Yes, remain out of Canada no more than 182 days. I do this now. I live bi-continentally.
Awesome!
Does the rule change if you become nomad? Planing to change country every few months.
I'm pretty sure it would... you'd have to check every different country's tax treaty status... etc. - Marc
If you work for a non local business, i.e. you're paid by an employer in CDA/USA, you just don't declare anything to your short term host country. Here in MX, many digit nomads don't pay MX taxes unless you work for a MX employer.
What do u think of annuities???
Sorry to have missed this…you had no audio even when volume was up to the max
Sorry about that. Strange though, because the issue is the right channel was not active... but the left channel is. You should be able to hear at least on the left side. - Marc
Good info as always but I am not retiring aboard as I have too many loved ones and my dog around me. 😃😃😃
Sounds like you're going to happy right here at home. 🙂 - Marc
The link doesn't work anymore
also, wondering about you and your dad's thoughts on life insurance vs. investing... esp now that brandon is both expecting and carrying a mortgage (i assume).
What if you want to retire in Great Britain
Great video. Thanks.
I’ve always wondered about this: What happens if a Canadian citizen age ~50, goes to reside in a country like Thailand. The only income this person has is capital gains and dividends from stocks that he owns in a margin account. How is this income taxed? I just can’t find any good info on CRA website.
Thanks in advance
Not sure of the specifics of Thailand from every tax angle. So you're saying you wouldn't get CPP or OAS? If that's the case, and your only income is from your margin account, probably best to consult an international tax accountant just to be safe. - Marc
@@beaviswealth This would be quite a few years before I even turn 65. All my stocks would still be held in my Canadian margin account.
If non resident, capital gains no tax, dividends 25 percent withholding
@@Pablo-or1jo Really? Zero tax on capital gains for non residents? Any reason why they have 25% withholding tax on dividends? That sounds like a lot.
@@edh6062 Canada withholds 25 percent wht on all income from within Canada. This can be lowered with a tax treaty. Capital gains are not in the income category. Thailand taxes in country income, and certain funds you bring in.
Is it possible to retire in Ghana and get your pension?
I like to live in Hainan island in China. It is beautiful and cheap for living.
Enjoy! - Marc
Philippines is the best . 600- 800 $ monthly pension is more than enough. Main City Manila has places that's high end.
Tell me if I am wrong. The Philippines requires a $10,000usd / yr. security deposit to live there permanently as an Expat. ?
