TFSA limit increases for 2019

The Canadian government has announced that the annual contribution limit for TFSAs will be raised to $6,000 for 2019, an increase from this year’s limit of $5,500.

This post was written by the former Estonian Credit Union, now Northern Birch Credit Union.

With the TFSA limit at $6,000 for 2019, the total room available in 2019 for someone who has never contributed to a TFSA and who was 18 years or older in 2009, the year in which the program was launched, will be a total of $63,500.

Historic TFSA yearly limits:

2009 – 2012 = $5,000
2013 – 2014 = $5,500
2015 = $10,000
2016 – 2018 = $5,500
2019 = $6,000
