If you don\u2019t contribute any money, Circle of Care won\u2019t either, but if you put in the maximum amount, Circle of Care will match that too.<\/p>\n<p>The maximum annual matching limit is:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>$450.00 for\u00a0<b><u>full-time<\/u><\/b>\u00a0employees<\/li>\n<li>$300.00 for\u00a0<b><u>part-time<\/u><\/b>\u00a0employees<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This is a combined amount for the TFSA and\/or RRSP.
