RESP


A Registered Education Savings Plan (RESP) is a regulated account designed to help you save for your child’s education. An individual RESP account can be opened in the child’s name who will later use the funds for college or university tuition, books and living expenses. The lifetime limit that can be contributed to an RESP account for a beneficiary is $50.000. The Canada Education Savings Grant (CESG) will match 20% of what you contribute to the account to a maximum of $500 per year and $7200 over the lifetime of that account. The Government grants must be repaid back to the Government.

Once the Child enrols in a post-secondary institution, she or he will only owe tax to the earnings and government grants. The funds made by the contributor will not be subject to tax. The funds in the RESP account are ONLY transferable to a sibling. If the child decides to not enrolled in a post-secondary education, the funds from the RESP account can be transferred to a sibling or in the absence of a sibling the money can be transferred to the contributor’s RRSP account, tax-free. If the RESP account is closed the funds in the account that were deposited by the contributor can be withdrawn without penalties. The gains earned inside the account are a subject to tax.

BENEFITS OF RESP


With the Canadian Education Savings Grant (CESG), the government may add to your RESP contributions up to a maximum of $500 per year, per child. The CESG is payable until the end of the calendar year in which a child turns 17 and the maximum lifetime CESG payment is $7,200.

You can decide how much money should be withdrawn in your RESP. You ca use the money you withdraw for your child’s education costs such as tuition, books, and living expenses.

Although contributions to your RESP are not tax-deductible, all investment income generated is tax-sheltered as long as it remains in the plan.

When you withdraw from your RESP to pay for your child’s post-secondary education, the plan earnings and contributions are taxed in the child’s hands. (As a student, the child may pay little or no taxes on the money).

Andrei from Awealth has been my Financial Advisor for over 7 years I was working with the banks before but Andrei's knowledge and understanding of my needs is way beyond anything else I had experienced before. Portfolio is rock solid, returns are over delivering year of year and I have a written financial plan, again something that the bank never offered me. I strongly reccomed you to connect with Andrei.

My fiancé and I remortgaged our home. I can’t begin to explain what a help Andrei is not only did he find us the best rate but he was able answer any question we had. Very flexible with time (my fiancé and I work odd hours) and very knowledgeable. This was the best choice we made. He’s very friendly and got things rolling pretty quickly. I’d recommend him to anyone and everyone. It’s honestly the most stress free decision you’ll ever make.

I’ve been investing with Andrei and AWealth for many years. I have 3 children and he setup RESP investments for all 3. He was very helpful and explained the process entirely. I also had my RRSP investments scattered with many banks. Andrei helped me consolidate all of my RRSP investments. On top of that, I am seeing much greater growth now that he is managing my investments (versus what I was getting at the bank). I highly recommend Andrei and AWealth!!

referred to me by a dear colleague, Andrei has been an excellent financial advisor! Andrei helped me and my family create a financial plan that includes managing my RRSP, TFSA and Non Registered accounts. ( also points for taking full advantage of an Investment Loan program that I didn't know exist) Also he helped set up an amazing RESP provider that bonuses my child's education fund by 15% each year. Not to mention that he was able to provide better life insurance coverage compared to my previous policies. In terms of cash, I've seen some great returns too. He's a great guy and very responsive and happy to answer any questions I have. Highly recommend!
