As everyone knows, RRSPs are in important tool in saving for retirement. Any contributions made to a RRSP are tax deductible, meaning you save the income tax for any contributions made to a RRSP. This year’s deadline for the 2021 tax year is March 1, 2022. Any contributions made before this date can be used against your 2021 income. Often this will result in a tax refund once you file your taxes. We highly recommend doing something “financial” with any refund generated. One great idea is investing within a TFSA, where future gains will be sheltered from ay taxes (this can also lead to some tax free retirement income). Another idea is to use the refund to pay down long term debts like your mortgage. If you opt to buy “stuff” with your refund, all you have done is make your retirement more taxable and purchased depreciating goods with the up front savings.
RRSPs are also not for everyone. A lot depends on your income each and every year. If you income fluctuates a great deal year to year, it’s worth a conversation with us as to what the best options are for you.
