February 7, 2023 | Posted by: MortgageAlchemist.ca Ben Moazzez

You have until March 1, 2023 to contribute to your RRSP for the year 2022.

An RRSP (Registered Retirement Savings Plan) is a tax-advantaged savings plan, that can help you grow your retirement income. Any investment income earned in an RRSP is tax-deferred, until withdrawn.

While RRSPs are meant to save for retirement, you also have the option of using the funds in the plan to purchase your first home or pay for your education1.

Here are key dates to remember as the 2021 RRSP contribution deadline approaches!

When is the 2021 RRSP Contribution Deadline?
