Disability And RDSP
What is the RDSP?
The RDSP is a government regulated savings plan intended to encourage individuals under 49 with a disability or families with a child who has a disability, to save for their future. The government will pay matching grants of 300%, 200%, or 100%, depending on the beneficiary’s adjusted family net income and the amount contributed and up to $70,000 over a lifetime. RDSP funds can be used in future to supplement income, cover medical or living costs or anything else.
