A Registered Retirement Savings Plan is a government-approved plan through which you save money for your retirement years. Your contributions, within limits, are tax deductible and the income earned is tax-sheltered. An RRSP enables you to invest money when you can most afford it during your peak earning years to build up a comfortable retirement fund.
Anyone
with earned income subject to Canadian taxation, including
non-residents, may contribute to an RRSP. Even if you are not taxable,
you should file a tax return to report your earned income and create
RRSP deduction room.
You can make part or all of any contribution to a plan in your spouses or common-law partner's name. You, as the contributor, are still entitled to the tax deduction. Contributions can be made until the end of the year in which the planholders 71st birthday occurs. An over-contribution can be carried forward beyond this year and deducted in subsequent years providing you have earned income on which to base the deduction.
