Lifestyle Spending Account(LSA)
An employer-funded taxable benefit wallet for wellness, fitness, learning, and lifestyle expenses that do not qualify under CRA Section 118.2. Common eligible LSA expenses include gym memberships, fitness equipment, streaming subscriptions, personal development courses, and travel. Because LSA reimbursements are not governed by the PHSP rules, they are taxable employment income and reported on the T4. Many employers offer both an HSA (tax-free) and an LSA (taxable) to provide comprehensive coverage.
