Each family member in the Wise family received a large unexpected inheritance from a long-lost uncle on May 1, 2021. They are still in shock about this inheritance and want to use the money wisely. They have all agreed that the smartest financial move would be for each of them to open Tax-Free Savings Accounts (TFSAs) and to maximize their contributions. To date, no family member has made any TFSA contributions except for Steve who contributed $5,000 at the beginning of this year. They have asked you to help them determine the maximum amount permitted under the TFSA rules and they will then each contribute from their inheritance. (Hint: consider carryforward balances and contributions in 2021).
