Department of Finance CanadaQuestions, answered plainly
What people ask before they open an account, and the answers an analyst would give on the phone.
Money and withdrawal questions
How long does it take to withdraw profits?
Withdrawal requests are processed on business days and sent back to your original deposit method. Interac and card withdrawals usually clear within one to three business days, bank transfers can take longer.
Are there hidden fees on deposits and withdrawals?
No. Deposits are free. A spread applies on currency conversion and a commission applies to completed trades, both shown before you confirm. There is no account maintenance fee.
What is the minimum deposit to open an account?
The minimum first deposit is C$350. The exact figure is shown before you confirm any payment, so there is no surprise at the funding step.
What happens to my money if markets crash?
Diversification across asset classes and a risk profile matched to your goals help manage, not remove, that volatility.
Account verification and security
What documents do I need to verify my account?
A government-issued photo ID and a recent document showing your address, such as a utility bill or bank statement from the last three months. This KYC verification is required before any withdrawal.
How do I know if a broker is regulated?
Check the public register of the relevant regulator yourself. Our order flow works with partners operating under CIRO and OSC oversight for Canadian clients, and we can confirm the exact licence details on request.
Can I withdraw all my money anytime?
Yes. There is no minimum holding period. A withdrawal request goes back to your original deposit method once identity checks are complete.
How does Department of Finance Canada login and account access work?
Sign in with your registered email and password, confirmed by two-factor authentication on each new device. If you are locked out, reset your password or contact support to regain access.

How does a personal investment analyst help?

Enter your email and password on the login page, then verify with your second factor (SMS or authenticator app). Your account dashboard shows real-time portfolio data, AI signals, and your account statement. Forgot your password? Use the reset link - support can help if you're locked out.
What does compound interest mean for my portfolio?
