Make the power of investing work for you

100% of RRSP earnings can be compounded and re-invested, which can increase your savings rapidly over the years, tax-free. Your allowable RRSP contribution for the 2025 tax-year is the lower of 18% of your earned income from the previous year, or $32,490.

Members are responsible for knowing their own annual contribution limits.

Making regular contributions to your RRSP can help reduce the amount of tax you owe, especially during your higher-income earning years.

RRSPs are flexible and withdrawals can be made at any time. Borrow from your RRSP without penalty using specific programs to help fund your education (Lifelong Learning Plan), or to buy your first home (Home Buyers’ Plan).
