A Registered Disability Savings Plan, or RDSP, aims to help eligible Canadians living with disabilities and their families save for long-term needs. An RDSP can hold a variety of investments, similar to other registered plans. The main goal is to grow funds in a tax-deferred environment so they can later be used to cover healthcare services, medical expenses, or homecare assistance.
If you or a loved one qualifies for the Disability Tax Credit, you may be eligible for an RDSP. This plan can be opened for Canadian residents under the age of 60.
The plan holder, typically the person who opens and manages the plan, can make contributions on behalf of the beneficiary, the individual with the disability who will ultimately receive the funds. Usually, parents open the plan for their child, but anyone can do this. Plan holders can also allow others to contribute to the plan.
There is no annual contribution limit, but there is a lifetime cap of $200,000. Contributions must be made with after-tax dollars and are not tax-deductible.
An RDSP is eligible for two types of government grants.
First, there’s the Canada Disability Savings Grant, which is a government matching program. The family’s income determines the matching rate, with grants reaching up to $3,500 per year until the beneficiary turns 49, and up to $70,000 over a lifetime. For more details, visit Canada.ca.
The second grant is the Canada Disability Savings Bond, available only to low-to-modest income families. No minimum contribution is needed to receive this bond. The amount depends on the beneficiary’s family income and can reach up to $1,000 annually until the beneficiary reaches age 49, with a lifetime maximum of $20,000. You can find more information on the Canada Disability Savings Bond at Canada.ca.
Funds in an RDSP can be withdrawn via a Disability Assistance Payment, which allows the beneficiary to access funds at any time for any purpose, though typically for medical and healthcare needs.
Another withdrawal option is through Lifetime Disability Assistance Payments. These are regular payments that must begin by the beneficiary’s 60th year, paid at least annually.
Be aware that government grants may need to be repaid if certain criteria are not met upon withdrawal. For more information on withdrawal requirements and repayment rules, visit Canada.ca.
An RDSP helps families plan for the future financial needs of loved ones. Funds can grow in a tax-deferred environment and be used for future medical and living expenses. For more information, speak with a TD Investment Representative.
