Download Your complimentary Retirement Guide: https://Guide.nextstepwealth.ca Most Canadians spend decades preparing for retirement, but very few are prepared for how taxes actually change once they stop working. Retirement doesn't just change your schedule. It changes how income arrives, how taxes are calculated, how government benefits interact with your income, and how much planning is required to avoid costly surprises. In this video, I walk through 7 retirement tax changes that catch many Canadians off guard, including RRSP-to-RRIF conversions, RRIF withdrawal rules, OAS clawback timing, tax installment requirements, pension income splitting opportunities, GIS eligibility considerations, and the often-overlooked differences between CRA and Service Canada. You'll learn why RRIF withdrawals can create unexpected tax bills, how OAS clawbacks work on a delay, why pension income splitting can save thousands in taxes, and what retirees need to know to keep more of their hard-earned money throughout retirement. Topics covered: • RRSP to RRIF conversion rules • RRIF withdrawal strategies • Retirement taxes in Canada • OAS clawback explained • CPP and OAS planning • Tax installment payments • Pension income splitting • Retirement income planning • RRIF taxation • Service Canada benefits • CRA retirement rules • Guaranteed Income Supplement • Tax-efficient retirement strategies • Retirement withdrawal planning • Canadian retirement planning • OAS recovery tax • RRSP meltdown strategies • Retirement cash flow planning • Wealth preservation Canada • Retirement tax mistakes If you're within 5–10 years of retirement or already retired and want to ensure your retirement income strategy is tax-efficient, book a consultation using the link above.
