Client Testimonials

Reduced my tax exposure

My financial advisor referred me to Dino for a second opinion regarding my “elevated” income tax situation. From the very first meeting, I knew that Dino was passionate about tax-efficient strategies that would legally reduce my tax-exposure, let alone increase my wealth. I have been recommending Dino to my friends and family to help them as well, and they are extremely happy as well with his services.

There’s more to income tax than just preparing the corporate financial statements and tax returns

Dino showed us that there was more to income tax than just preparing the corporate financial statements and tax returns. Dino assisted us with legally reduce/defer income taxes by doing things differently.

Lowered income taxes

We are very pleased that Dino helped us minimize our taxes so we can maximize our wealth. Our income tax is still our biggest expense, albeit much lower as of recent.

Frustrated with income taxes

After becoming frustrated with paying a considerable amount of income tax over the years, we decided to look for a second opinion. We stumbled upon IFA.tax on Google earlier this year. After reviewing our tax situation, Dino legally put in place a tax-reducing permanent life insurance strategy that substantially lowered our tax-exposure by 40% for the next 10 years.

Tax implications for corporate structures

My financial advisor referred me to Dino, and yes, for those you who know him, he is very knowledgeable in corporate structures and tax implications, but above all, he is very down to earth. Dino took the time to truly understand my challenges, and always takes the time to explain every step in plain English. Undoubtedly, I strongly recommended Dino and his team.

IFA presents many options for estate and wealth planning. Dino and his back office were very professional regarding the tax-advantages of leveraged life insurance. The team has a deep bench, backed by knowledge and experience.

Everyone at IFA is friendly

Everyone at IFA is so friendly. Mr. Dino was very knowledgeable and he answered all our questions. He was able to put myself and my husband’s fears to rest. The not so easy process was made very easy for us and Dino totally explained it to us in layman’s terms, not lawyer jargon. Dino also helped with my father’s will. He is 91 years old and hard of hearing. Everyone was so patient and helpful in every way! Thank you so much!

Passionate about protecting wealth from taxes

For us, and very likely for most high-net-worth Canadians, income tax is by far the biggest tax burden. I can tell Dino is passionate about helping professionals protecting their wealth from taxes so they can keep more money for themselves.

Confident tax strategies

My professional experience with Dino and the IFA.tax team has been absolutely positive. Dino projects confident tax strategies and I am happy with his services.

Proactive tax planning

About three years ago, I was reviewing my financial situation and was using an accounting firm that was preparing my tax returns but was not proactive in tax planning. I was referred to Dino to get a second opinion. He was able to legally reduce/defer about $95,000 each year in taxes! The savings were invested in life insurance, leveraged, and with a 3% compounded return over 20 years, my net worth will increase by $2.5 million, without having to do anything except legally taking advantage of the income tax laws. I am richer than I think!

Leverged life insurance to protect my family and business

Dino worked with our lawyer to reorganize our corporate structure that included leveraged life insurance to protect my business and my family. Our income taxes are now reduced significantly and have increased protection for our corporate and personal assets.

Nick A.

Our net worth has increased

We have seen our net worth increase by minimizing our income taxes and can see that IFA-tax’s tax-planning and tax-efficient investing strategies that include life insurance will really help to accelerate our wealth building in the future.

Being a shareholder of a family business

Dino took the time to analyze our income, assets, lifestyle as well as our tax exposure and financial goals. He explained that by being shareholders in a profitable family-owned business, we changed how, when and how much to pay ourselves personally to sustain the same income, but with a much lesser income taxes, for both business and personal. We highly recommend Dino and his team’s services.
