Course Description
Participants will examine income-splitting opportunities and restrictions in the Canadian Income Tax Act, with a practical focus on how the expanded Tax on Split Income (TOSI) regime affects families, private corporations, and common planning structures. Participants will analyze traditional prohibitions, rules that expressly allow splitting, and the impact of the TOSI rules through practical examples and CRA commentary.
Applicable for
- CPAs with solid income tax fundamentals who advise individuals, professionals, or business owners on income-splitting matters
Learning Objectives
- Apply traditional Income Tax Act provisions that restrict or explicitly allow income splitting.
- Apply the expanded TOSI rules to a range of fact patterns.
- Identify legacy techniques that no longer work and recognize viable current strategies.
- Advise on practical income-splitting approaches and related documentation.
Content
- Introduction to income-splitting concepts and planning context
- Non-TOSI restrictions: common attribution rules (e.g., ss. 74.1–74.3, 56(4.1)), and reasonableness (s. 67)
- Permissive rules/structures: CPP sharing and pension splitting, spousal RRSPs, RESPs, RDSPs, TFSAs, fair-market-value transfers, and loans for value
- Expanded TOSI framework: impact of new rules on business owners and their families, exclusions for minors and adults (including age-based tests, excluded business, excluded shares, reasonable return)
- Application of TOSI to various scenarios (basic and advanced)
- Strategy toolkit: traditional income splitting methods that still work and new requirements in light of TOSI
