Unfortunately, there's a complication if you're 65 or older and subject to
the dreaded Old Age Security (OAS) clawback, which applies to seniors with incomes of $ 67,700 and above.
By the same token, if your salary is relatively low and you want to maximize future sources of government retirement income like
Old Age Security and / or the Guaranteed Income Supplement, then again the TFSA is compelling: all withdrawals will be totally tax free and not trigger
dreaded «clawbacks» of OAS or GIS.
