RRSP
The engine of Canadian retirement planning, offering immediate tax relief and long-term deferred growth.
Key Benefits
Tax Deductible: Contributions reduce your taxable income immediately.
Tax-Deferred Growth: Investments compound without tax drag until withdrawal.
Spousal Strategies: Income splitting opportunities to lower household tax bills.
Home Buyers' Plan (HBP): Withdraw up to $35k tax-free for your first home.
"The RRSP is designed for your peak earning years. By contributing now, you receive a tax refund at your current high marginal rate. The funds grow tax-sheltered, and you withdraw them in retirement when your income (and tax rate) is likely lower. We help structure your RRSP to balance growth with preservation as you approach retirement."
RRSP: Frequently Asked Questions
Your 2026 RRSP deduction limit is 18% of your prior-year earned income, up to a maximum of $33,810, minus any pension adjustment. Unused contribution room carries forward indefinitely.
RRSP contributions are tax-deductible, reducing your taxable income in the year you contribute, and investments grow tax-deferred. You pay tax only when you withdraw, ideally in retirement when your income and tax rate are lower.
RRSPs generally win for higher earners who expect a lower tax rate in retirement, because the upfront deduction is worth more. TFSAs offer tax-free growth and withdrawals with more flexibility. Many Canadians use both; we build a personalized split based on your income and goals.
