Registered Disability Savings Plan (RDSP)
The RDSP is a Canada-wide registered matched savings plan, available to people with disabilities.
In order to qualify for the RDSP and individual must first be approved for the Disability Tax Credit. The RDSP is designed to help individuals suffering with disabilities better plan for their financial future. The RDSP, if utilized, can have significant benefits on the long-term savings of an individual.
