The Tax-Free Savings Account is still the most underrated retirement savings account in Canada. Many Canadians treat their TFSA as a short-term, low-risk investment account, which is a huge mistake. Below are 4 TFSA strategies to maximize its key feature, tax-free growth.

A TFSA is a savings account introduced by the federal government in January 2009. When you save in a TFSA, your investment earnings grow tax-free. Unlike an RRSP, you do not receive a tax deduction when you contribute and you are not taxed on withdrawals.
