​​Get retirement ready with an RRSP

A Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP) will help you retire comfortably. Contributions and interest earned are tax exempt, as long as they remain in the plan.

 

Your allowable RRSP contribution for the 2023 tax-year is the lower of 18% of your earned income from the previous year, or $30,780.

​Enjoy the benefits of an RRSP

  • ​Lower your tax – Regular contributions to your RRSP will reduce the tax you owe, especially during your higher income years.
  • Grow your money – Because your RRSP is tax-deferred, your earnings will be tax sheltered until you withdraw them in retirement.
  • Contribute until you’re 71 – Make annual contributions up to 18% of your earnings up to a government-mandated limit until you turn 71.
  • Borrow from your RRSP to purchase your first home without penalty – Speak to a member of our team to learn more.
  • Borrow from your RRSP to help fund your education without penalty –  Speak to us​ to learn more.
  • Multiple investment products are available within an RRSP account –Term deposits, mutual funds, stocks and bonds included.

  • Individual, spousal or common-law partner RRSPs.
