How do I request to redeem shares in my RRSP+ with the Fonds?
Tax credit reminder
If you meet the conditions set out in the prospectus, you are eligible for tax credits of 30%[1] for labour-sponsored funds until the end of the tax year in which you turn 64 years of age. Note that by withdrawing your savings from the Fonds, in whole or in part, for retirement or disability purposes, you will no longer be eligible for these 30% tax credits on future contributions. This represents an additional tax savings of up to $1,500 per year until the end of the fiscal year in which you turn 64.[1]
Are you 65 or older and looking to redeem shares in your RRSP+ with the Fonds?
As soon as you reach 65 years of age, whether you are retired or not, you can redeem eligible shares held in your RRSP+ with the Fonds.
Your shares are considered eligible for redemption if you comply with the minimum holding period for your acquired shares.

Are you 64 or under?
As soon as you reach 45 years of age, you can submit a request to redeem shares held in your RRSP+ with the Fonds if you are retired or if you plan on retiring within three months of your request. Note that the disbursement will be made on the date of retirement, even if you submit your application within 3 months of retirement.
Also, as soon as you reach 55 years of age, you can conduct an online transfer of your RRSP+ with the Fonds to the RRSP with FlexiFonds. For more information on this subject, log in to your online account.
