Income phase-out$161k single / $240k married (2024)

Best for

  • Younger savers with long compounding horizons
  • Lower current tax bracket than expected retirement bracket
  • Estate planning — heirs inherit tax-free

Watch out for

  • Direct contributions phase out at higher incomes — use the backdoor strategy
  • 5-year seasoning clock on earnings withdrawals (separate from contribution withdrawals)
  • No RMDs during your lifetime, but inherited Roth has beneficiary rules

About this tool

This calculator runs a three-phase simulation: accumulation (working years with contributions and growth), preservation (wind-down near retirement with a conservative return), and distribution (retirement withdrawals).

Account-specific features are included automatically: employer match for 401(k) plans, CESG grants for RESP, CDSG grants for RDSP, tax-free growth for TFSA/Roth accounts, tax-deferred growth for RRSP/traditional accounts, and capital-gains treatment for brokerage accounts.

Projections assume constant returns and don't model sequence-of-return risk, inflation (unless toggled), or tax-law changes. A licensed advisor can run stochastic simulations and build a comprehensive retirement plan.
