TFSA - Designation of Successor Holder and/or Beneficiary

Complete this form to designate or change a successor holder and/or beneficiary of your Tax-Free Savings Account (TFSA) and/or assets.

The designation is subject to the laws of the applicable jurisdiction (province or territory). If the laws of the applicable jurisdiction do not permit such a designation in the TFSA, it may be made only in a will (or, in Quebec, a marriage contract).

Note:

  • A successor holder must be your spouse or common-law partner, as defined by the Income Tax Act. That person will take over your account upon your death.
  • A beneficiary can be anyone, including your spouse or common-law partner. If the TFSA has only a beneficiary designated, the funds will be paid, upon your death, in cash to the beneficiary.
