Anyone doing last minute shit?

I won't have access to my TurboTax until tonight, so scrambling to find an online calculator that'll show me what my return would be if I contribute $x, etc...

(TurboTax had a neat slider calculator that used last yr's figures, and you can figure out the sweet spot where you end up paying $0 in taxes, etc...)

Dropped off a cheque to my financial advisor last night. I should be getting a good return, which I will either dump into the mortgage or save for our expenses when we buy a house.

Maxed out my contributions back in December. Actually, I ended up overpaying by $150 or so due to the early paycheque we received around Christmas.

But as always, no tax refund for me. \:D

How do you not get a tax refund if you are T4 employee? Did you submit an application for reassessment of your income tax based on your contributions so they hold less off your pay cheque because you always max out? \:o

Dang son, that's some next level financial discipline y0

I did that back when I first went f/t in the fall of 2000. I haven't had a refund since.

Discipline? Not really. Just putting aside a little bit each paycheque and making a few % on it in the meantime. And since I usually put aside more than I owe at the end of the year, it's like getting a little refund anyways.

Regular scheduled contribution (bi-weekly) + pre-deduction from work (DPSP / ESPP) = pretty closed to max out my RRSP deduction limit (maybe a few hundred bucks breathing room to be rolled over to next year).

Does it make a difference if you are a dual income family and helps maxing out yoru RRSP contribution every year?

I am not married and have no kid, but after the obligated expenses (mortgage, property tax, utility, gas, insurance, etc) I barely have money left to contribute \:\(

Honestly, the trick is to take it out pre-tax via salary deductions, you don't even miss it.

You don't even need to contribute hundreds of $ at once. Even if you only contribute $30 per paycheque, the compound growth will add up over time.

It's not so much a dual income family that helps you save money - but rather, the average living cost per person goes down as you increase the # of people in your household (up to a certain point).

Cue Brampton -- how many families are living under one roof?

There are *some* additional saving vehicles for when you have a spouse and kids; but its no where proportional to how much you spend on supporting them.

In your case, if you want to start saving (while you have your own place); consider getting a roomie and have them defray some of your costs.

This thread inspired me to max out my RRSPs yearly and to max out all my unused contribution room that I've accrued from previous years.
