TFSA Investors: CRA Will Announce a New Limit For 2022 This November


Piggy bank next to a financial report

Will the Tax-Free Savings Account (TFSA) limit be higher in 2022? The Canada Revenue (CRA) will officially announce the new limit soon, although most users anticipate no change except for the increase in the cumulative contribution room. This year, and since 2019, the annual limit is $6,000.

TFSA room began accumulating if you were 18 before 2009. If you have not opened an account yet, and the limit stays the same, you can contribute up to $81,500 in 2022. The investment account is now engrained in the lives of Canadians, much like the Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP).

Those with unused contributions should welcome the announcement, because the available room will be higher, including the carryover amount from 2021. Most Canadians with long-term financial goals max out their TFSAs every year to take advantage of the tax-free money growth.

Preferred investments in a TFSA

The vast majority of TFSA investors prefer to hold dividend stocks because of higher potential returns. Moreover, TFSA balances grow faster when you reinvest dividends. Keyera (TSX:KEY) and Alaris Equity Partners (TSX:AD.UN) are two attractive income stocks.

Their average dividend yield is 6.665%, which means a combined investment of $6,000 (TFSA annual limit) can produce $399.90 in tax-free income. The CRA will not charge you tax when you withdraw your earnings. If we assume further that your available room is $81,500 (maximum cumulative room), the annual dividend would be $5,431.98.

Dividend Aristocrat status

Keyera is a component member of the TSX Canadian Dividend Aristocrat Index. Apart from its high yield (6.27%), this energy stock is one of the select few that pay monthly dividends. The $6.72 billion independent midstream company processes and transports clean-burning natural gas.

Some market analysts even think Keyera is a consolidation target following Brookfield Infrastructure Partners’s completed acquisition of Inter Pipeline. The company is well managed, and rising natural gas prices are very positive moving forward.

In the nine months ended September 30, 2021, Keyera reported $234.22 million in net earnings, a 71.2% increase versus the same period in 2020. The financial performance reflects in the stock’s 42.14% year-to-date gain. The current share price of $30.43 is a good entry point.

Unique investment structure

Alaris has yet to earn a Dividend Aristocrat status, but it’s hard for TFSA users to ignore this dividend stock. The $893.4 million private equity firm pays a juicy 7.06% dividend. Any investment amount will double in 10.19 years. Likewise, the stock is a steady performer, given its 39.23%. Thus, you get value for money and more at $18.71 per share.

The business structure is unique in that Alaris provides capital to profitable lower middle market companies in North America. Apart from proven management teams, the business’s historical free cash flows are $3 million or more. Most of the clients are asset-light, and none of have high risk of obsolescence.

Alaris is doing well, as evidenced by the financial results after three quarters this year. In the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Total revenue grew 41.8% year over year. Net earnings were $136.47 million versus the $3 million net loss in the same period last year.

Highly anticipated announcement

The CRA will gift TFSA users this holiday season with an additional contribution limit for 2022. Its formal announcement will come in a couple of days.

Get Rich With These High-Yield Canadian Dividend Stocks

Image
Dividend stocks are one of the smartest ways to create wealth in the long term. By investing in dividend-paying stocks, one can generate returns in two ways: dividends and capital appreciation. As top dividend-paying companies generally have well-established businesses and a growing earnings base, they generate steady capital gains in the long term. Further, the reinvestment of dividends allows investors to accumulate more shares and create wealth in the long term.  With this background, let’s zoom in on three high-yield Canadian stocks that can help you get rich over time.  Enbridge  Enbridge (TSX:ENB) is a must-have dividend stock, and there are solid reasons behind that. Besides offering a lucrative yield of 6.7% (based on its closing price of $53.14 on May 10), the company has a resilient business that consistently delivers steady growth.  Enbridge owns extensive midstream assets and transports oil and gas. In addition, Enbridge has interests in renewable energy faci...

How much dividend income can you earn?

Image
Passive income. It’s one of the most common financial goals for Canadian investors. Everybody likes making money on a stock trade, but what could be better than a stock that pays you income year in and year out? Such are the kinds of stocks that Warren Buffett and other long-term investors made their fortunes on. This raises a question: Is it possible to make a truly substantial amount of money – let’s say $1,000 per month – with just dividend stocks? Such a thing would be very helpful if it could be done. Consider that, $1,000 per month is more than what the average Canadian gets from the Canada Pension Plan (CPP). If you take the average CPP payment ($811) and add $1,000 per month in dividend income to it, you get to a sum of money that could potentially pay all of your bills. In this article, I will explore the topic of making money with dividend stocks. I will show how much money you’d need to invest to get $1,000 a month in dividend income. I will reveal a stock that...

The market pullback is giving Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP) investors a chance to buy top Canadian dividend stocks at undervalued prices for a self-directed portfolio focused on long-term total returns. TC Energy TC Energy (TSX:TRP)(NYSE:TRP) has raised its dividend in each of the past 22 years, and investors should see the distribution continue to grow at a steady pace.

In Canada, TC Energy is building the Coastal GasLink pi...
