Accountants will also be asked to prepare the pension accounting elements of the client's corporate financial statements as a result of the move into a pension plan.

Additional Savings

Why Accountants Choose PPP®

15 reasons to consider a PPP® for your client

1

Higher retirement balances

PPP® members can accumulate $1M+ more registered assets over 20 years compared to RRSP-only strategies.

2

Seven new deduction categories

Current service, past service buybacks, terminal funding, special payments, interest, investment fees and administration fees are all deductible.

3

Creditor protection

PPP® assets are shielded from trade creditors and maintain super priority in bankruptcy proceedings.

4

Intergenerational transfers

Assets can transition between family members without deemed disposition or probate when multiple members join the plan.

5

Flexibility past age 71

Special payments allow corporations to keep contributing and deducting even after RRSP limits end.

6

Input tax credits

GST/HST on plan fees can be recovered by the sponsoring corporation, improving after-tax results.

7

RRSP coordination

Members can toggle between DB and DC formulas and later convert DC years to DB for additional past service contributions.

8

Participating life insurance funding

The incremental tax refunds generated by PPP® deductions can finance corporately-owned participating life insurance.

9

Early retirement income splitting

Pension income can be split as early as age 50, unlocking credits unavailable to RRIF holders until 65.

10

Governance included

INTEGRIS delivers pension committee oversight, legal and actuarial coordination at no additional cost.

11

Surplus unlocking tools

AVC assets remain unlocked and surplus can be managed through accrual adjustments, enabling strategic withdrawals.

12

Capital gains exemption purification

Large deductible contributions help cleanse passive assets from a corporation ahead of a sale.

13

Deepens client relationships

Recommending the PPP® positions you as the strategic tax planner your incorporated clients rely on, while INTEGRIS handles the actuarial and compliance heavy lifting.

14

Client retention

Switching to a traditional RRSP after enjoying PPP® benefits is rare, anchoring long-term relationships.

15

Scalable support

From onboarding to annual filings, INTEGRIS manages the heavy lifting so you can focus on advice.
