Our Friends at CRA and CH Summer Plans

Now that May is officially over and we’re well into June, we’d like to follow-up with you on a few things we’ve learned during this unorthodox tax season.
CRA March Instalment
It has come to our attention that CRA has swept the March instalment account for a number of our clients and refunded it to them following the filing of their personal taxes. If you made a March tax instalment, let us know and we’ll verify if it’s still applied to your account. If it’s not, we’ll let you know to go ahead and make the payment again.
CRA Payments
In addition to accepting payment through online banking, CRA is now set up to accept payments directly on their website. We’ve created a few guides for your reference. Please click on the link below that applies to you!
Personal (Online Banking)
Personal (CRA Website)
Corporate Tax (CRA Website)
CRA Payment Deadline
As a reminder, no taxes owing are due until August 31, 2020. Refunds are being processed within the normal timeframe (approximately three weeks after filing).

CH Next Priorities
We are excited to announce some new initiatives at CH. We are always listening and looking to improve our service delivery model, and in the spirit of open communication we have two new ways we’ll be connecting with you starting on June 22nd.
The first is a weekly communication from our team: CH Portfolio Minute. This will be a memo delivered by email every Monday that highlights investment specific information. Our goal is to give you more insight into how your portfolio is being managed. The first few will come directly from me, and over time you’ll hear different perspectives from our whole team. You will need to opt-in to this communication. Please do so byclicking here. You can expect the first memo to be delivered on June 22nd – spoiler alert, we’re discussing the concept of buying growth for free. You won’t want to miss it!
The second is the most interactive way, and completely new for our team. CH Live will start on July 6th and continue on the first Monday of every month for the remainder of the year. I will be hosting a video call at 4pm MT that will last about 60 minutes, consisting almost entirely of Q & A. We’ll send out a reminder the week before to submit any questions you might have, and I’ll also answer some live ones as well. The format is to be determined, but by the end of next week you’ll receive an email invite to join (webinar-style). Transparency is hugely important to us and giving our clients a platform to make sure your points are heard is one way we feel we can make good on this commitment.
Things have changed a lot in the last couple of months, and we’re doing everything we can to stay current and stay connected. If you have any suggestions on how we can achieve this even more effectively, please let us know. If you have any questions you’d like answered, please join me on July 6th!
Best,

ARE WE A GOOD FIT?

Like you, we’re selective about the long-term relationships in which we engage.

We’re looking for aspirational clients who require the whole spectrum of financial services because managing the whole is how we’re able to deliver unbeatable value – it’s our “secret sauce”.

If this describes you, let’s set up a meeting and
get to know each other.

I just want to say we have been with your team since 1993, and we have never had any bad advice. The investments you set up for us during this time has paid for university education for our two granddaughters and provided a significant monthly income for us to augment our pensions.

We are with you for the long run and are not going anywhere. Jeremy has told us that at these times the numbers tend to scare you, but you haven’t really lost anything if you don’t panic and sell.

When I became a client of CHF it was a real game-changer as I was going through a very difficult time both professionally and personally.

I went through a divorce and the loss of a job and a parent, all within a 12-month period. While it was very tough to deal with at the time, I was reassured by the fact that the team at CHF had my back and really cared about me and what I was going through.

Looking back now, I’m not sure how I would have managed without the support of the CHF family.

Jeremy and his team were there every step of the way to help me navigate my way through the complexities of a divorce and inheritance. They got me back on track both financially, as well as emotionally.

I have now been a client of CHF for over 10 years and thanks to their expertise, I know that my family will be well taken care of for many years to come. I am now in a position where I don’t need to worry about money thanks to a solid financial plan.

I would highly recommend the CHF team to others going through life-changing and difficult situations as your financial partner.

As an investment industry professional, I am constantly on the go and maximizing my peak career earning years in my 40s. With travel and work commitments I am very limited for time to spend with family and do the things I love to do and chose CH Financial to allow me more freedom and lifestyle balance.

Being in the investment industry my whole career and an extremely busy professional, I know I could probably do a good job at managing my money as I work in the industry after all while I rely on and trust the CH Financial team that they will take care of the details, both growing my assets as well as taking care of every aspect of my financial situation, including my tax, investments and insurance, they simply take away the stress of having to worry about it all and help me to navigate the complexities for me so it all meshes together and importantly saves me valuable time and headaches.

At the end of the day, the reality is I truly value my time and the opportunity cost of my time and would rather hire the best in the industry so ultimately my wife and I can do the things that we love to do, have more leisure time, relax and enjoy spending time in the great outdoors, exploring new countries, hiking in the mountains and volunteer work.

Since engaging CHF more than 5 years ago we have enjoyed significant growth in our investments but more importantly, we have peace of mind and sleep much better at night knowing the team at CHF has our financial back and anything financial they will take care of for us.

I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending the team at CHF to other career-focused busy professionals who really value their time and lifestyle balance.

Prior to joining CH Financial as a client, I had been partially managing our investments and using a bank-owned broker for many years, with moderate success. When we became clients of CHF, I quickly realized how little I knew about the complexities of managing investments and the importance of seeking out the best specialists in the industry to assist with my family’s full financial picture.

Brian and the team at CHF encouraged us to take an introspective look at our assets and expenditures and even helped us implement a comprehensive budget. The team really stepped up to take care of all aspects of our financial picture, including portfolio design, CH Financial introduced us to a lawyer who took care of everything for us, estate planning and tax, while helping us simplify our financial affairs.

Being of the sandwich generation my wife and I spend considerable time caring for our surviving parents and our grandkids, so

freeing up valuable time is essential to allow us to do the things we love to do. The team at CHF takes care of the details and today my wife and I enjoy a comfortable, stress-free financial situation.

Over the years as a client of CHF, both our portfolio and wealth has grown exponentially, more than we could have ever imagined. Now that we are both happily retired, having the CHF team in our corner helps us to sleep better at night knowing that our somewhat complex financial puzzle is being looked after by a team of people that really care, as opposed to being treated like a number by a big bank.

I would have no hesitation in recommending the CHF team to others looking for a superior financial home in Calgary and a safe place to invest your hard-earned money.
