They walk through five practical moves Canadians can make right after filing to avoid missed opportunities and make smarter financial decisions moving forward. The conversation covers how to use your Notice of Assessment, how to think strategically about a tax refund, why adjusting tax withholdings matters, and how revisiting your RRSP strategy can improve long-term results.
