Anyone can contribute

You and your family aren’t the only ones who can contribute to your RDSP. Friends can also add to the funds.

Government matched

Your savings may be boosted by government grants, including the Canada Disability Savings Grant and Bond.

Doesn’t limit benefits

Having an RDSP won’t affect your benefits. It’s exempt from most provincial disability and income assistance programs.

Spend it your way

There are no restrictions on how RDSP withdrawals are spent, so you can use the money however you need.

 
 

Designed for canadians with disabilities.

An RDSP is a savings plan designed to help you, your family and friends save for any long-term financial needs you might have. While not tax deductible, your RDSP may be boosted by government grants. This includes:  

The Canada disability savings grant.

Matches contributions up to $3,500 annually and $70,000 total, depending on your family income.

The Canada disability savings bond.

Adds up to $1,000 annually and $20,000 total to the RDSPs of lower income families.
