Using Disability Tax Credits (DTC) &  the Registered Disability Savings Plan (RDSP) as Part of Your Planning Process
The disability tax credit (DTC) is an important program for those facing severe and prolonged physical or mental impairment. Some individuals face unique barriers when it comes to completing their application and claiming the credit.

In addition, understanding the benefits of an RDSP offers individuals the ability to provide financial security for those who may be dealing with either a cognitive or physical disability or are caring for a family member with cognitive or physical disabilities.

What will the advisor learn from this presentation?

In this presentation, the advisor will leave with a better understanding of the DTC and how to help parents and others save for the long-term financial security of a person who is eligible for the disability tax credit (DTC).

Financial advisors have a tremendous opportunity to help provide Canadians affected by disability with a secure financial future by introducing the Disability Tax Credit (DTC) and the Registered Disability Savings Plans (RDSPs) into their financial plans to look after present and future needs. 

Presentation Overview

Peter will be speaking on the eligibility requirements for the Disability Tax Credit, who can qualify, potential refunds, and other credits and benefits. He will discuss the RDSP benefits, grants and bonds, explain government matching, and how to grow your book of business through the RDSP and residual assets. 

Peter will address the issue that by working with a Financial Advisor who specializes in the special needs market, the elimination of financial support can be mitigated. 

Financial products such as the Registered Disability Savings Plan (RDSP), Segregated Funds, Life Insurance and the Henson Trust are considered ODSP exempt assets and can be used to prevent the loss of financial support.

"Your Future by Design"
Presentation Overview

Experience alone is becoming less important because the world is changing and changing rapidly. Expectations are changing and increasing as well. Technology is becoming ever more available and advanced, taking over many of the tasks we used to do and claim as our value proposition. How can we differentiate ourselves from machines and programs, while using them to great effect?

This presentation will take advisors on a journey where they will be reminded of the importance of trust, holistic planning, communicating effectively with clients, associated financial & estate planning considerations and the rising client need for and expectation of lifestyle planning and what that means.

What will the advisor learn from this presentation?

Your future by design; how do you view that? Your future? Your clients' future? Perhaps both?

What do we mean by design? Certainly, it infers doing something deliberately, based on a blueprint, a plan or a recipe.

Who wants to be more successful? Who wants to develop longer term client relationships more easily and with added glue? Who wants to be perceived as adding more value and being more valued?

Invest some time into exploring and incorporating these key takeaways:

1. Understanding the relevance of connecting with people more deeply, 
2. Understanding the power of process, and building that into your business and action plan, and 
3. Tying this all into improved and sustainable practice management.
