How can you reduce your Taxable income for next year? Best Option is the “Win—Win Option” = Start a business! ... The best way to reduce your taxable income is to start a business. This is also a Win—Win option as you can increase your income, while gaining tax deductions. Even if your business carries a Loss, you still benefit by reducing your taxes from the employment income... Ideal businesses, are ones that Ž do not require up front purchases, such as product inventory. Ž train you in a special interest, and provide business education Ž provide you with a product that you already are using I personally recommend: Ž A Representative with Primerica Financial Services, or Ž A Distributor with Melaluca Health products. Ž Both have Great Education & Awesome Products. So why not test out both? Ž At least consider a six month trail basis, get the education, test the products and get the benefits that they offer. If it works for you GREAT, if not then move on, and take the education with you for free...
The Next Best way to reduce your Taxable income is to Save some of your money in an RRSP RRSP—When you choose an investment that is appropriate to your risk level, you then have the choice to make it registered or non-registered. If it is registered then it is “Tax Sheltered or Tax Deferred” So the money you invest becomes non-taxable income in this tax year. This causes the Tax refund of tax that was already collected from you on your pay cheques. There are many options for investing your money. You could diversify with Bonds, Stocks or Real Estate. I recommend Mutual Funds because it is a mix of stocks and bonds and a portfolio manager supervises it. Even better than Mutual Funds are, segregated funds, since they offer extra benefits, such as a guarantee on the principle and creditor protection.
