How much do I need?
Plan for lifeTM
Experts suggest you will need to replace 70% of your salary.
Keep in mind, your income will come from three sources:
• Government programs (Old Age Security, Canada or
Quebec pension Plan)
• Your group savings and retirement program
• Your personal savings (real estate, other savings
plans or income)

Advantages of payroll deductions

In the example below, saving $50 really only costs you
$30 on your take home pay. And you pay less in tax.

How much am I allowed to contribute?
Plan for lifeTM
Limit set by Canada Revenue Agency (CRA)
• 18% of your previous year’s earned income or the dollar
maximum stipulated for the current year
Note: It is your responsibility to monitor your limits

Same amount of money ($48,000), same investment return (5%),
longer period of time… the savings almost double!
You simply earn more by putting aside smaller amounts of money
over a longer period of time.

What is an RRSP?
Plan for lifeTM
The advantages of a Group Registered Retirement
Savings Plan (RRSP):
• A convenient, disciplined savings program through payroll
deduction
• Immediate tax reductions
• Dollar cost averaging reduces investment risk
• Group buying power – favorable interest rates and lower
investment management fees
• Spousal RRSP available (Income-splitting)
14
What is a DPSP?
Plan for lifeTM
A Deferred Profit Sharing Plan (DPSP):
• A simple, flexible arrangement whereby your employer pays
contributions based on the company’s profits
• Employee does not contribute to the plan
• Group buying power – favorable interest rates and lower
investment management fees
• Flexibility at termination and retirement – vesting to occur no
later than 24 months after participation began. No locking-in
rules.
• A wide variety of investment funds
15
Termination or retirement
Plan for lifeTM
• At termination or retirement:
– Contributions can be cashed out (for DPSP, if vested)
– Can be transferred to another Registered Retirement
Savings Plan (RRSP)
– Can be used to purchase an annuity, or a RRIF
16
Tax-Free Savings Account (TFSA)
Plan for lifeTM
Capital gains and other investment income earned will not be taxed –
even upon withdrawal!
• Contribution room starting at $5,000 per year and indexed to inflation and
rounded to the nearest $500 on a yearly basis
• TFSA withdrawals can be re-contributed the following year with no penalty
• Carry forward unused contribution room for an indefinite period
• Choose from a variety of investment options much like those in your RRSP
• TFSA assets can be transferred to a spouse upon death
• Effective savings vehicle for both short term and long term goals
• The same low management fees as with your group retirement products
