2. The tax credit for Public Transit Tax Credit on Passes will be eliminated effective July 1st.
3. Tighter rules on investment products you can and can’t hold in your Registered Education Savings Plan (RESP) and Registered Disability Savings Plans (RDSP). Strict investment rules had already been outlined for RRSPs and TFSAs. Make sure you’re holding allowable investment products, otherwise the penalties are onerous.
4. The CRA will continue to receive more funding in 2017 to ensure every Canadian is playing by the tax rules and claiming all eligible taxable income. For 2017, the federal government will be spending an additional $523.9 million on top of the $400 million they spent last fall to track tax cheats and collect money from tax evaders both in Canada and around the world.
