The Canadian Money Roadmap

Maximizing Retirement Savings and Tax Benefits with Spousal RRSP Strategies


Listen Later

Unlock the full potential of your retirement savings with our latest episode, where we unravel  the power of spousal RRSPs.  As the RRSP deadline looms, we delve into strategies that not only prepare you for a stable retirement but also smartly align your savings with your current income bracket to maximize tax benefits. With an eye on the future, we discuss how adjusting your contributions can significantly reduce your taxable income now and how a spousal RRSP can be a game-changer for couples, particularly where one spouse earns a higher income.

Our conversation extends beyond just RRSPs, as we explore the clever use of spousal RSPs for income splitting, which can be especially advantageous in single-income, households. We dissect the three-year rule that prevents immediate withdrawal by the non-contributing spouse. This episode doesn't just throw numbers and rules at you; it integrates these strategies with other financial vehicles like TFSAs and FHSAs, painting a comprehensive picture of how to stretch every dollar for a financially secure horizon. Join us as we guide you through these pivotal strategies, ensuring you're equipped to make informed decisions that could pay dividends in your golden years.
