Complete the following steps to access your ScotiaMcLeod accounts through ScotiaOnline:
|
| Change your address
|
For your protection, we require your signature to change your
address. Follow these steps to advise us of your change of address and to update us
on any changes to your investment objectives, as well: |
| Contribute to your RRSP
|
Use this form to make a contribution to your existing RRSP account.
Note: If making a contribution in January or February for the previous tax year,
please courier or allow time for mailing. CCRA will not allow us to
accept an RRSP contribution for the previous tax year that is received
after March 1 of the current year, regardless of postmark. |
| Change your investment directions
|
Print off this form to change the fund(s) in which your regular payroll
or monthly PAC contributions are being invested. You can also use the
form to direct your payroll to a spousal RRSP. Please allow 2 weeks
for our systems to be updated upon receipt of your new instructions.
To change the amount that you contribute, in employer payroll Group plans,
please contact your payroll department, as only they can modify the amounts
coming off your paycheque.
Please note that we only need written instructions to change your
ongoing investment instructions. One time changes to your investments,
i.e. fund switches, bond purchases etc. can be done verbally. |
| RRSP withdrawal
|
This letter and form will help you understand the financial/tax implications if you are considering an RRSP Withdrawal. |
Power of attorney
(limited or full)
|
Granting someone Power of Attorney (POA) over your account allows him or her to make
investment decisions on your behalf. While a POA is usually a spouse or close relative, that is not always the case.
Whether to allow your spouse to manage your investments on your behalf or merely to designate a trusted individual to act on your
behalf in case you were incapacitated or unavailable, having a designated POA is generally a good
idea. (Note: In the case of Spousal RRSPs, the spousal contributor is not the account holder. For the
spousal contributor to direct how his or her contributions are invested, he or she must have POA
for the account.) Follow these steps to set up a power of attorney on your account:
|
