I'm 65, but I'm not yet retired. Can I redeem my RRSP+?

Yes. As soon as you reach 65 years of age, whether you are retired or not, you can redeem your RRSP+.

Please note that if you are not yet 71 years of age (the age limit for contributing to an RRSP according to the Income Tax Act), you are not required to redeem or transfer your RRSP+ with the Fonds to another savings vehicle. You can maintain it with the Fonds and withdraw it as needed at a later date.

No age limit exists for non-RRSP shares. You can therefore continue to contribute while doing your part to help drive the local economy. However, no tax credits are issued after you turn 65.
