Learn about managing your plans, transferring funds, withdrawing funds, and getting your statements.
You can no longer contribute to The Canada RSP or The Canada RIF because funds in these plans were invested in Canada Savings Bonds and Canada Premium Bonds which are no longer available for purchase.
Managing your plan
The option to transfer new funds into your plan is no longer available, but your current funds are safe and guaranteed.
As of December 2021, all funds in your Canada RSP or Canada RIF have reached maturity and no longer earn interest. However, your plan will remain accessible to you.
Transferring funds
As a plan holder, you can transfer funds from your Canada RSP or Canada RIF to another registered retirement savings vehicle without penalty.
To initiate the transfer, visit your financial institution or RSP administrator.
Withdrawing funds
Contact Customer Service to redeem the funds held in your plan. If you withdraw funds from your Canada RSP or Canada RIF:
- Your withdrawal will be subject to a withholding tax.
