Great news for Canadian investors! Today we’re pleased to formally announce new tax settings for Sharesight portfolios, just in time for the Canadian tax season. As a reminder, April 30 is the deadline to file your 2017 taxes (if you’re self-employed, it’s June 15).

- Non-registered – standard tax rules apply (default)
- Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP) – Non-resident withholding tax does not apply for US stocks
