how to pack safely

BY CHUCK RESNICK

When it comes to moving, a little common sense goes a long way in transporting your belongings to your destination so that they arrive in good shape and on time.

C

onsidering the importance our “stuff” has in making us feel comfortable in our surroundings, these items deserve special thought and care. Thinking ahead is the best thing you can do when it comes to making arrangements, packing, etc.

Organization should be your mantra, efficiency your goal.

If you are doing the packing, look ahead to lifting, stacking and unpacking the boxes during your move. People often run to the grocery or liquor store to pick up cartons, and then use newspaper as cushioning. Although this approach can save you a few dollars, in the long run, you may pay for it in stress, time and broken items.

Common sense dictates that heavier items be packed in smaller boxes, and vice versa.

Instead, think about purchasing cartons and packing paper from the professional mover you’ve chosen.

The boxes come in uniform small, medium and large sizes, which are easy to stack in a moving truck or van. Trust me, this convenience is huge on moving day. Unlike newspaper, packing paper does not leave behind ink that then has to be cleaned during an already hectic time in your life.

During the packing itself, be generous with whatever you are using to

cushion your things, especially fragile items. People often cram too much in each box in an attempt to keep the number of cartons down. As good as that sounds, it can backfire, as too many items with not enough cushioning may shift during transportation and damage each other. In addition, someone will have to lift each box and place it into the moving vehicle.

Packing too many heavy items into one container can result in no one being able to pick it up, or worse yet, the box breaking from the weight. Common sense dictates that heavier items be packed in smaller boxes, and vice versa. And did I mention labeling?

Again, a little common sense goes a long way to success at the other end.

When you pack the moving vehicle, remember to place the boxes you’ll need first, last—and label accordingly with the contents and which room it goes into. Even better, if you are driving to your next residence, place things such as garbage bags,

tissues, dish liquid, etc. into the car.

You should also carry valuables such as jewelry, your laptop, important papers and the like separately from the bulk of your items.

Another way to apply common sense to packing is to look at each item with the thought, do I really need or use this? Especially if you are moving from a house into a condominium suite or apartment, paring down possessions is important. The fewer things you move, the less your move will cost in terms of time and money.

And speaking of money, if your budget allows, hire movers to do your packing and transporting. We do this every day, and we have it all down to an efficient system. Professional movers want our moves to go smoothly as much as our clients do.

Everyone is born with common sense, but few use it. If you are planning a move, I encourage you to be one of those savvy few! Visit www. twomen.ca for a location near you. ■

how to keep the

kids busy

A

s the pandemic stretches on and winter sets in, we’re all going a little stir crazy. If you’re a parent feeling stuck on creative ideas for fun and educational activities to do with your kids, we’ve got you covered.

Here are some suggestions from The Genius of Play, a nonprofit initiative whose mission is to raise awareness about the critical role of play in healthy child development:

play with texture Kids love playing with sensory textures such as paints, slime, sand and foam, and this helps improve fine motor skills. Fortunately, you can now find less messy and sticky versions of these items for a hasslefree cleanup.

revisit favourite games Consider classic board games like checkers and dominoes, or playing a game of crazy eights with a deck of cards. These games teach the importance of sharing and good sportsmanship while helping kids learn to strategize and plan ahead.

experiment with costumes Encourage kids to develop their emotional, creative and communication skills by developing their own skit or play. Maintain a well-stocked costume trunk that they can

use for dress-up and have toys on hand to use as props.

build new things Whether your child prefers following step-by-step instructions or using their imagination, designing, creating and playing with construction toys can build problem-solving, spatial and fine motor skills.

create an obstacle course Building a safe obstacle course is a fun way to keep little ones active indoors while building core muscles and developing balance. Pick three to five exercises to get their energy out.

check out STEAM toys Play with science, technology, engineering, arts and math (STEAM) toys and games.

For example, use a science kit to erupt a volcano or code a robot. These important educational experiences can be fun supplements to classroom learning.

transform tidying up It may not sound like play at first glance, but cleanup can be fun with the right attitude. Put on music and have kids dance as they put toys away, make the bed and help with chores. Or, make a game of it, racing each other to complete tasks.

his year’s tax season is unique and could also be very confusing, especially with several measures introduced by the government to assist those who had to stop working or have been laid off.

Though most benefits are taxable, many weren’t taxed at the source (meaning the government didn’t hold back an amount of money to go towards your taxes), so that money will be calculated and owed when you do taxes this year. To help you

INFO YOU CAN USE

Though most benefits are taxable, many weren’t taxed at the source, so that money will be calculated and owed when you do taxes this year.

prepare your taxes, here are some insights from Lisa Gittens, senior tax expert from H&R Block:

The amount owed will depend on your 2020 marginal tax rate, taking into account all other income earned that year. Your marginal tax rate is the amount of tax you would pay on an additional dollar of income and is based on the rates of tax applied to a given level of income, both federally and provincially.

CERB

CRSB

For those who received the Canada Emergency Response Benefit, the government will be issuing a tax reporting slip for 2020 outlining the total amount of funds received. This must be reported as income on 2020 returns, and since no tax was deducted at the source, dues may need to be paid on these amounts.

If you are self-employed without a paid sick leave program, you may be eligible for the Canada Recovery Sickness Benefit, which provides $500 per week for up to two weeks if you were unable to work due to illness or were required to self-isolate. This benefit is available from September 27, 2020 to September 25, 2021. The

deadline for applying for any oneweek period is 60 days after the end of that period. Tax is withheld at the source for the benefit so any amount received through the CRSB is taxable.

CRCB If you have had to miss work to care for a family member due to COVID-19, you may be eligible for the Canada Recovery Caregiving Benefit.

This benefit is also available from September 27, 2020 to September 25, 2021. As with the CERB and the CRSB, the CRCB is taxable and subject to a 10 per cent withholding tax.

If you are concerned about preparing your own return, an H&R Block tax expert can give you added confidence and peace of mind. ■ — News Canada February 5–19, 2021

is it better to invest in a TFSA or an RRSP?

e all want to save money on our taxes.

And making contributions to government savings plans can help. You may decide to maximize your contribution to your Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP) prior to the March 1st deadline or contribute to your Tax-Free Savings Account (TFSA) or both.

Choosing between the two can be a tough decision, and while both will help you save, the best option is going to depend on your financial situation and goals. Lisa Gittens, senior tax expert from H&R Block, shares some things to consider.

saving for the future Anytime you make an investment, it’s good to identify exactly what you’re saving for. Putting away money for retirement is usually on a

longer timeline than, say, your child’s education fund. Income earned in both plans is allowed to accumulate tax-free. Because of the more flexible withdrawal rules, TFSAs are typically used for shorter-term goals.

contribution limit Don’t forget that there is a limit to how much you can contribute to either account, which changes each year. In 2021, the TFSA contribution limit is $6,000. For RRSPs, your contribution limit is based on 18 per cent of your earned income, to a maximum of $27,830.

“If you don’t contribute the full amount you’re allowed in any one year, you can carry forward any unused contribution room, based on the set limits for each year,” says Gittens.

To find out your limits, you can review last year’s Notice of Assessment on the CRA website.

withdrawals With a TFSA, you can withdraw funds any time you like without any tax implications because your contributions are based on after-tax income. In contrast, contributions to a RRSP account are made with pre-tax dollars, so any withdrawals would be subject to tax.

tax deductions Contributions to TFSAs have no impact on your tax situation. However, RRSPs are tax deductible, reducing your income tax payable. “If you contribute to your RRSP before the March 1 deadline of this year, you can claim a deduction on your upcoming tax return” adds Gittens.

If you have questions about which savings method makes sense for you, speak with one of H&R Block’s local tax experts. ■ — News Canada
