About Landed Canada

Landed Canada exists because the financial information newcomers need in their first year is scattered, outdated, or buried behind paywalls — and almost never available in the languages people actually speak at home.

We publish short, accurate, practical guides on the things every new Canadian has to figure out: opening a bank account, building credit, filing a first tax return, choosing between TFSA, RRSP, and FHSA, and avoiding the fees that quietly cost newcomers hundreds of dollars per year.

Every piece of content is researched from primary Canadian sources — CRA, IRCC, Service Canada, and the banks themselves. We update fees, program terms, and deadlines every quarter. If something on this site is out of date, email us and we'll fix it the same day.
