Save with every paycheque when you opt for payroll deductions

Learn how payroll deductions can help you save more in your RRSP+, for much less.

How does it work?

To benefit from this plan, your employer must offer the RRSP+ via payroll deduction with the Fonds. This option allows you to choose the amount that will be deducted from each paycheque and deposited in your RRSP+.

Because the amount is taken directly from your paycheque, you benefit immediately from an additional 30% in tax savings[1] on top of the standard RRSP deduction. For example, a $100 contribution to your RRSP+ could end up costing you only $43.50.[2]

Tip

To find out if your employer offers the RRSP+ via payroll deduction with the Fonds, simply ask your payroll department or call us at 1-800-567-3663.
