Get 30% in tax credits!

Your savings + our RRSP = + tax savings

By choosing the Fonds RRSP, you get two tax benefits that can save you between 58% and 78% of the amount invested!

First benefit: tax credits

  • 15% on your Québec taxes;
  • 15% on your federal taxes.

The maximum amount eligible for these tax credits is $5,000 per year, which translates into tax savings of $1,500 ($750 on your Québec taxes and $750 on your federal taxes).

Second benefit: tax deduction

You also enjoy the usual tax deduction granted to all RRSP holders by the two levels of government. This tax saving can vary from 30% to 48% depending on your tax rate.

Let’s look at an example:

Your contribution: $1,000

Tax rate: approximately 38%

Your actual outlay: $320
