Degree and diploma programs are eligible for RESP funds. A letter of acceptance from the faculty is typically all that is required to have RESP funds released by your provider. Please visit the Human Resources and Skills Development Canada website for more information.
Lifelong Learning Plan (LLP)
The Lifelong Learning Plan (LLP) allows you to withdraw up to $10,000 in a calendar year from your Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP) to finance full-time training or education for you, your spouse, or common-law partner.
You cannot participate in the LLP to finance your children’s training or education, or the training or education of your spouse’s or common-law partner’s children.
As long as you meet the LLP conditions every year, you can withdraw amounts from your RRSP until January of the fourth year after the year you make your first LLP withdrawal. You cannot withdraw more than $20,000 in total.
