Automated Questrade Contribution Deadline Reminders

Every Monday, WebRun opens Questrade, reads your current RRSP and TFSA contribution room for the year, adds the RRSP contribution deadline and year-end TFSA deadline to Google Calendar, and posts a Microsoft Teams reminder as either deadline approaches, naming the room still unused.

In short

How do I track my Questrade RRSP and TFSA contribution deadlines?

WebRun reads your Questrade RRSP and TFSA contribution room every Monday and keeps both key deadlines on Google Calendar, posting a Microsoft Teams reminder naming how much room is still unused once a deadline is within 60 days. Making the contribution stays your own step, WebRun only makes sure the deadline and room remaining are never a surprise.

  • Unused RRSP or TFSA room is never discovered too late to use it
  • Both key deadlines stay on the calendar automatically, year after year
  • Reminders only fire within a real 60-day window, so they stay meaningful

Questions, answered

Will WebRun make a contribution to my RRSP or TFSA for me?

No. WebRun only reads your contribution room and reminds you of deadlines. It never transfers money, never places a trade, and never makes a contribution. Funding the account is always something you do yourself.

How does it know my contribution room?

It reads the contribution room Questrade itself shows for your account, which reflects your CRA-reported limits, so the numbers match what your actual account shows, not an outside estimate.

What counts as approaching enough to get a Teams reminder?

A deadline within 60 days by default, giving enough runway to actually plan a contribution rather than a last-minute alert.

Put this on autopilot.
