How do I transfer an existing ISA or Pension to Wealthsimple?

We make it easy for you to transfer an existing ISA or pension from another institution to Wealthsimple by following these steps:

1. Login to your Wealthsimple account on your desktop or mobile app
2. Navigate to the "Funding" page of your account and click "Transfer an existing account"
3. Fill in the details of your transfer and upload an account statement (optional)
4. Some relinquishing institutions need you to have physically signed a transfer form before moving your assets (we don't - we think if you want to move away it should be as easy as possible for you, and we are fully electronic).
5. If your institution is one of these we will create a pre-populated form for you to print off, sign and send to us. Otherwise we'll work electronically with them.
6. We will take then it from here! We will get into contact with your financial institution to initiate the transfer and all that's required from you is to sit back and wait!

These processes typically take 2-4 weeks - we wish it could be faster! We'll stay on top of the transfer for you and email you once it is complete.
