Indeed a complex subject. I made a table to help me understand it. Then another table that I use, when I select a stock, I look to the table to see what account it should go in.Also, remember that the 15% witholding tax for USA stocks is something you don't get back in your TFSA. And one last thing - thour channel is great, thanks for taking the time to do this. Escpecially that your in Ontario, Canada
@@Zergbad invested all my money (~80K)basically in split shares and income funds. I'll use this tax info to better distribute my portfolio and purchase ETFs.
Wonderful! I am brand new to this so I am still trying to figure things out. I am planning to invest in ZWC EIT DFN TNT As passive income And VfV and QQQ For growth... Still trying to play around with % in distribution. I wonder if it is right move.
Great video. Thanks for the information and clarity in presentation. You mention the 15% foreign withholding tax, and I offer two considerations (as I understand things (I’m not a tax or investment pro) to potentially add even more clarity. 1. The withholding tax is withheld by the foreign government- it is not a Canadian tax ( I see confusion on this point in various videos). Canada does apply a withholding tax to foreign investors returns but that applies to money leaving the country. 2. The withholding tax rate varies by country. While US holdings are likely most common for Canadian investors, other countries apply withholding tax at different rates. 3. the Canadian foreign tax credit only applies to one level, meaning for example, if you invest in a US fund that holds Australian stocks, the AU govt will apply its withholding tax to returns paid to the US fund, the the US govt will then apply its 15% to payments made to Canadian investors. In effect the return will have two levels of withholding tax applied by the time it lands in the hands on the Canadian investor but CRA only permits FTC for one level as far as I know.. It’s a bit or roadmap to follow, but the key take away is research and know where the investment dollars are ultimately landing to avoid surprises. Food for thought. Hope it’s useful.
You really opened my eyes to the different ways we gain or lose our profits. I would like to speak to you regarding setting up my portfolio with the mentioned strategies to the end of your informative episode. I will pass this video on to my family and friends. Thank you
In Ontario, eligible dividends are better sheltered from taxes than capital gains because of fed/prov. Tax credits. If your only source of income is dividends ~50k or under you'll pay zero to a few hundred dollars in tax.
@@PassiveIncomeInvesting 👍 I will donate more as time goes on and I get to watch more of your presentations. I am new to your channel. Guided here from Brandon Investing and Parallel Wealth youtube channels on Canadian Investing and financial planning. 🍁👍🇨🇦
Well done, very informative. There is a lot of unnecessary criticism regarding Return of Capital in particular. The BMO Tax FAQs document is also quite informative.
I have reviewed at least a dozen of the Tax & Distributions for BMO ETFs and none had any Non-Eligible Dividends entries except for ZRE which had a small entry! This may be why the CGs and ROC are used, which is a good thing! Notice that the ZWG Eligible Dividends 0.08215 counters the ZWG Foreign Tax Paid 0.083640. The Eligible Dividends are probably because of 2 Canadian Banks and Enbridge earnings in ZWG.
I like to think of ROC as delayed capital gains. Eventually when you sell your position you'll have to pay. The only true tax free income I know of is muni bonds.
In Lithuania, capital gain tax is 15%. It is payable when your income is above 3000 euros and -500 euros from a lump sum as non taxable amount. Capital gains are better when paid in low amounts as they are effectively non-taxable, but as most foreign dividends are taxed at 15% rate, it is better just to get dividends when sums are considerable. However, when you do not receive massive amounts of money, that 3500 non taxable ceiling is massive. I will have to consider capital gain dividend payers as there is potentially huge tax harvesting opportunity with them. However, by taxing my capital gains tax on capital gains, I won't have a freedom to sell my holdings tax free most of the time.
Amazing video Adrian - I have a way better understanding on investment taxes and another compelling reason adopt your recommended passive income strategy! Many thanks 🙏🏾
Adrian we are confused US Funds in a CDN cash account - ROC income from various funds is added up and is recorded by Investorline as a consolidated T5 and classified as Foreign income -= 100% Taxable at marginal tax rate. Please explain.
For a retired dividend investor looking for passive income it would be better to hold US dividends in your TFSA to avoid the interest tax rate and just pay the 15% withholding tax.
As usual excellent content 🙏👍. If we follow your videos we no need to check any other TH-cam. You have provided A-Z information. From the starch to start and with Tax information too. I really love it. And happy to see 1M subscribe soon. I am forwarded to all of my friends. Handoffs to you👍
Love your videos Adrian, thank you for everything you're doing! When it comes to your portfolio and taxes, do you focus on having certain stocks/ETF's in your cash account and others in your TFSA? Based on what you showed, it would seem like a good strategy to hold certain shares that you'd normally have to pay a lot more in taxes on within your TFSA.
Good afternoon, BMO and Canoe do a great Job of displaying how there distribution is broken down into the 5 categories. Im having trouble finding the distribution breakdown for BGI.un, any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance
Adrian.. could you include the tax information for each recommended stock in your Ultimate Dividend Passive Investing Package that you will be releasing soon .. you could accomplish this by adding 4 new small columns and fill in approx % of income... it certainly would make it easier to pick a stock to add to our portfolios knowing the tax structure .. just a suggestion.. great video
Thank you so much Adrian. Question though: If I keep reinvesting into the ROC-type ETF’s, can I effectively, in a sense, keep ‘delaying’ my 0-ACB and ACB is only applied to my shares that were invested within it’s 10-year ‘limit’? So capital gains will only be applied to the 10-year limit shares and the others are still ROC?
Hello Adrian can you please do a video telling different btw DFN & DS. one is a split and the other is select. what does that mean? and manangement fees on both . Thanks
Adrian I am trying to figure out how KLIP would be taxed in a normal account. If you have any insight I would love to hear it. Love your videos...I am watching lots of them at the moment.
@@PassiveIncomeInvesting On my TDAMERITRADE platform the graph shows dividend payments for each stock. ie. "XOM .87" for each quarter. No div payment shows for any of your list. As if it doesn't pay one. I can set up thru TDA to send me a check for the div payout each quarter. It looks like ROC reinvests the div payment and you need to sell some to get paid.
Thanks bud for making this video, very helpful and will keep this one saved. so I know you said other income is taxed like non eligible dividend, can you confirm in which categories does it fall under in that TD handout you shared? Love the channel
Kind of an on and off topic... what happens to your shares in a split fund if it does close. How is it treated for tax purposes in a cash account. I'm invested in DGS.TO if it helps for the example.
Whatever the nav of the funds ends at , is what you get back . If you get more than your original investment back , the difference would be a capital gain
Adrian, Thanks for the awesome video. One question: For a particular security, is it the expectation that the components of distribution (interest, dividends, capital gains and ROC) remain stable over time? This is in general, a security that mostly paid ROC last year will continue paying ROC and not switch to interest for example.
Hi Adrian! Thanks for another informative video! I decided start with investing into 100 ZWC ($17.70/share) and 100 EIT ($11.50/share). I wanted to also put 100 shares of DFN at 7.99 per share but their price went up so I couldn't buy. You have mentioned that you have lost some share in FTN/ FNN due to Consolidation of share. When does "Consolidation" happen? And will any of the 3 stocks (ZWC, EIT, DFN) exposed to near future Consolidation? Thank you again for very informative video!
This was very educational and answered many questions including some I hadn't even thought to ask yet. But I am still struggling with whether it is better to hold US Dividend stocks or funds in a TFSA or RIF. It seems to me that the 15% withholding is less than the tax payable on the RIF withdrawal when you take the money out, plus there is no tax on capital gains in the TFSA ever. What am I missing?
I explained the tax classifications in the video . To know the breakdown of an individual fund , like dfn , you need to go look on their website . Like I showed in the video
Hello, just wondering if you have a list of ROC paying dividends that I may access. If not can you make a video on 5 - 10 ROC paying companies. I only know of 2 - DGS.TO and TNT.UN. Thanks in advance
@@PassiveIncomeInvesting So this fund would be best for my RSP? If I did buy it in a tfsa would the government give me I'm withholding tax credit back at the end of the year? Do you have a video explaining more about withholding tax?
Hi Adrian, if DGS is bought and sold within a year and it paid ROC distributions, do we have to manually adjust the ACB and therefore pay tax on the increased capital gains? In that sense, ROC is not tax-free, right? I am confused, please advise. Thank you.
Yes it lowers acb , I use td and it automatically adjusts your acb so you don’t need to manually keep track ( bless technology) but you only pay capital gains when you sell the shares, so keep them forever and you’ll never have an issue
@@PassiveIncomeInvesting Thanks for your reply. What about DGS or ZWU or ZWC, do we have to manually adjust the ACB or is it done automatically for us? Please advise. Yes, if we don't have to keep track manually, it makes things so much easier. Thank you.
Adrian, thanks for going through this. If I invest these dividend funds with my TFSA account, do I still need to worry about the tax? If it's RRSP account, do I pay these tax only if I make a withdrawl? Can you explain the tax implications with these two account types?
The TD chart was easy to remember and understand. Thanks! I'm planning to buy CLM in my TFSA (still have a lot of room). So if I bought CLM at 17% yield my actual yield will be 2% because of 15% withholding tax?
No, Adrian can confirm, but if you looked at the dividend for May 28th (ex-div on May 13th) it's $0.16 per share. With the 15% withholding tax you would actually receive $0.136 per share. That works roughly to a yield of 13.92% (instead of 16%). Or you can think of it like this yield of 15% * 0.85 = yield of 13.6%
Good video as usual! I have watched your other video in which you talked about selling your condo and renting a place. I was wondering what your rent is? Most people get out of renting and buy their own condo or a house but you did the opposite.
Very well explained I thought. We appreciate it. Can anyone recommend any books about educating yourself on the ins and outs of margin accounts in Canada? I have not yet ventured outside my registered accounts but am considering doing so.
Thanks, this was a great informative video !! Question for you........ if I have an opportunity for an IPO and they offer Class A and Preferred shares at equal numbers, is that a good option ? I am looking at the new Brompton fund
For the new infrastructure split fund ? There is always an equal amount of class a and preferred shares for splits that’s how they work , the class a ones are the attractive shares for yield
@@PassiveIncomeInvesting Thanks for your reply. Yes, that is the fund available on IPO right now. When purchasing IPO's, is that risky ??? (I have never done that before)
Great video as always. Do you know if TD WebBroker would automatically adjust the ACB every time a ROC is received? Thank you and keep up the good work.
Yet again - a great video! What would be a good portfolio for a RESP for my kid? I downloaded the excel sheet from your website (different types of portfolios) but wasn't too sure which one is best for RESP? Any thoughts? Thanks! Keep up the good work.
In my opinion, several good choices, but for an RESP - where I assume the expectation is that you will withdraw all of the money to fund an education (or educations), you might want to consider the options where there is some growth over time, or not as much depreciation in capital. For instance from 2011 to 2021 $10,000 invested in EIT.UN (Canoe) would have grown to $21,913 (assuming DRIP), but the share price went from $15.21 to $11.55 over that same time period - so best to look at longer term total returns. You're not looking for income with your RESP your're looking to have a total return to pay for education. It's good to remember that all stocks and mutual funds look really good on the 12 month charts right now so take a look at the longer term returns.
Isn't it true that if your total income for the year is composed of about $50,000 of eligible dividends and nothing else then you pay zero tax? And why would you use a 49.53% marginal tax rate in your example? You would have to make well over $200,000/yr to be in that tax bracket. And only the portion that falls in that tax bracket is taxed at that rate, not the entire dividend amount. And also, most people don't make that much. Your examples would be much more relatable to most people if you used a more common marginal tax rate.
2 years later and this is still the best video on TH-cam explainaing how income made from funds are taxed in Canada. Thank you Adrian!
Good day Adrian - This video was very very helpful indeed - Thanks bud 😎

Question for you........ if I have an opportunity for an IPO and they offer Class A and Preferred shares at equal numbers, is that a good option ? I am looking at the new Brompton fund
For the new infrastructure split fund ? There is always an equal amount of class a and preferred shares for splits that’s how they work , the class a ones are the attractive shares for yield
@@PassiveIncomeInvesting Thanks for your reply. Yes, that is the fund available on IPO right now. When purchasing IPO's, is that risky ??? (I have never done that before)
Not sure what you mean , risky ipos are more for single, speculation stocks not funds like this one . I’m just waiting until it comes out
@@PassiveIncomeInvesting Thanks for replying !! I like following your channel and advice. Cheers
Great video as always. Do you know if TD WebBroker would automatically adjust the ACB every time a ROC is received? Thank you and keep up the good work.
Great question ! The answer is no unfortunately
Hey Adrian when you have this much invested in a variety of fund types, is it still simple to do your own taxes or is it better left to an accountant?
It’s simple , you get a t3 statement for each fund . But it’s just a bit longer if you have a lot of funds
Yet again - a great video!
What would be a good portfolio for a RESP for my kid? I downloaded the excel sheet from your website (different types of portfolios) but wasn't too sure which one is best for RESP?
Any thoughts?
Thanks! Keep up the good work.
In my opinion, several good choices, but for an RESP - where I assume the expectation is that you will withdraw all of the money to fund an education (or educations), you might want to consider the options where there is some growth over time, or not as much depreciation in capital. For instance from 2011 to 2021 $10,000 invested in EIT.UN (Canoe) would have grown to $21,913 (assuming DRIP), but the share price went from $15.21 to $11.55 over that same time period - so best to look at longer term total returns. You're not looking for income with your RESP your're looking to have a total return to pay for education. It's good to remember that all stocks and mutual funds look really good on the 12 month charts right now so take a look at the longer term returns.
Liked!
Isn't it true that if your total income for the year is composed of about $50,000 of eligible dividends and nothing else then you pay zero tax?
And why would you use a 49.53% marginal tax rate in your example? You would have to make well over $200,000/yr to be in that tax bracket. And only the portion that falls in that tax bracket is taxed at that rate, not the entire dividend amount. And also, most people don't make that much. Your examples would be much more relatable to most people if you used a more common marginal tax rate.
Yes it’s true but the amount varies by province . I’m using the example illustrated in the article , that’s all .
