Over the last couple of months, we have reviewed the primary sources of income in retirement: your public service pension plan (PSPP), Canadian government pension plans and your personal savings. This month, we discuss the need to bring all these notions together with a Retirement Income Forecast.
As you prepare for retirement, you want to ensure that your retirement income is adequate with your expectations and goals. A detailed personalized retirement forecast will allow you to reflect on your retirement planning and assist in answering many financial questions.
- When is the best time for me to retire?
- How much should I put aside to supplement my pension incomes?
- When is the best time to begin receiving CPP and OAS?
- Will I benefit from pension income splitting with my spouse?
- How do I minimize any OAS Clawback?
- TFSA or RRSP? How do I build an investment portfolio that fits my objectives?
- When should I make contributions (withdrawals) to my RRSP and/or TFSA?
- How does inflation affect my retirement lifestyle?
