Spousal Registered Retirement Savings Plan

HOME | WHAT WE DO | INVESTMENTS

A Spousal RRSP is a type of Registered Retirement Savings Plan designed to help families build retirement savings together while also supporting long-term tax planning strategies. Instead of contributing to your own RRSP, you contribute to an RRSP in your spouse’s or common-law partner’s name

You receive the tax deduction, while the account is owned by your spouse and taxed in their hands at withdrawal, ideally at a lower tax rate. This approach can help reduce your combined household taxes during retirement.

Highlights:

  • Contributions are deducted from your income but taxed in your spouse’s hands at withdrawal, who is often at a lower tax rate. 
  • Helps equalize retirement savings and reduce overall household tax in retirement. 
  • You can contribute to both personal and Spousal RRSPs within your total RRSP limit. 
  • Ideal for families where one partner has a higher income or will likely have a larger retirement income later on.

In summary, a Spousal RRSP can be part of a tailored strategy for long-term tax reduction and equitable retirement income distribution between partners. 

By contributing strategically, you may lower total household taxes in retirement while maximizing the benefits of RRSP savings as a family.
