I already contribute to the Fonds via payroll deductions or automatic bank withdrawals, can I also contribute through the random selection?

Yes. However, the Fonds will not verify whether the selected savers are already contributing to the Fonds. If you are selected, make sure your total contributions do not exceed $5,000 if you want the full amount to be eligible for the 30% in tax credits.[1]

I already contribute via payroll deductions

Since you have already set up RRSP+ contributions via payroll deductions through your employer, you can modify your contribution whenever you wish. Want to save more? Simply change your contribution amount at any time through your online account.

I already contribute via automatic bank withdrawals

If you already contribute to the Fonds via automatic bank withdrawals, you cannot increase the amount of your existing agreement. However, if you are selected through the random selection process, you can set up a new automatic bank withdrawal agreement or make a one-time contribution.

Are you getting the most out of the tax credits specific to labour-sponsored funds?

By registering for our random selection, you could combine this new contribution opportunity with your existing automatic bank withdrawals to reach a total contribution of $5,000, the maximum amount for which you can receive tax credits in 2024.

Example:

  • You already contribute $200 per month via automatic bank withdrawal = $2,400
  • You contribute a lump-sum amount through the random selection = $2,600

Combined total = $5,000 in contributions

Reminder: The maximum contribution amount eligible for the 30% tax credits specific to labour-sponsored funds is $5,000 per year, per person.[1]
