Financial Planning

Retirement income & transition planning · Canada & United States

Retirement is one of the most significant financial transitions a person will face — touching income, lifestyle, health coverage, and available time. PENADMIN provides financial planning services to pension plan members and sponsors in Canada and the United States, including financial services, namely fee-for-service financial planning.

We take retirement planning beyond the projection. Members receive a clear financial picture — pension entitlements, government benefits, personal savings — alongside practical guidance on the personal and lifestyle changes that accompany retirement, so they can plan for financial security with confidence.

What our financial planning covers

For plan members

  • Retirement income projections integrating DB pension entitlements
  • Retirement date and pension option analysis (annuity vs. transfer value)
  • Government benefit timing — CPP/QPP and OAS in Canada; Social Security in the US
  • Transition planning for the non-financial side of retirement

For plan sponsors

  • Pre-retirement financial planning sessions offered as an employee benefit
  • Member education on plan provisions and retirement options
  • Planning support for owner-managers with Individual Pension Plans (IPPs)

Cross-border (Canada–US)

  • Retirement planning for members with service and benefits in both countries
  • Coordination of Canadian registered plans with US qualified plan benefits
  • Residency-transition planning for mobile employees and retirees

Credentialed, verifiable expertise

PenAdmin's financial planning practice is led by founder Salim S. Hajee, an FSRA-verified Financial Planner in Ontario holding the CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® certification (FP Canada, since 1998), the Registered Retirement Consultant® (RRC®) designation, and the Chartered Financial Planner® credential (Canadian Institute of Financial Planning) — all in good standing.

Engagement example — US-based client

For a US-resident member of a Canadian defined benefit plan approaching retirement, PenAdmin provided financial planning services covering pension commencement options, the coordination of Canadian pension income with US Social Security, and the tax and residency considerations of drawing a Canadian pension while living in the United States.
