Money Coaching Tip, Jan 5: 2010 RRSP Deadline – your friendly headsup
Jan 5th, 2010 by nancyzimmerman
Today’s tip is simply a friendly reminder that the RRSP deadline is March 1, 2010 (to claim on 2009 taxes).
Typically banks start putting their best foot forward in late January, and then through February to attract your contribution funds to them. You’ll want to be prepared to seize the moment when it comes, so pull your funds together and ensure its liquid in time. If you haven’t opened an RRSP account yet, you’ll want to do that now before the mania starts.
My RRSP contributions go in monthly so I never really think about the deadline. However, it seems I could be getting better rates if I waited until Jan – hmmm – that sounds like a lot of discipline. Maybe not.
These tips are great by the way!
