What Plus does for you: Buy
FHSA, Home Buyers’ Plan and TFSA: your down payment account by account, the tax you save, and the purchase year in your plan.
Every down payment account in its place
The FHSA first: going in, tax-free coming out for the purchase. Then the HBP and the TFSA. Plus shows you how much goes in each, and when.
