How do I request to redeem shares in my RRSP+ with the Fonds?

Saving Services can check your eligibility and answer all your questions about redeeming shares held in your 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 have held them for at least 730 days.

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.

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.

    The acquisition of shares of the Fonds de solidarité FTQ may give rise to labour-sponsored fund tax credits. The tax credits amount to 30%, namely 15% at the Quebec level and 15% at the federal level, and are limited to $1,500 per fiscal year, which represents a $5,000 purchase of shares of the Fonds de solidarité FTQ. On March 1, 2024, The Government of Québec announced in Information Bulletin 2024-3 that tax legislation would be amended to postpone by three years the rule providing that the tax credit would be available only to individuals whose taxable income for a given taxation year was below the highest tax rate. Please note that this postponement may be subject to legislative changes.
