RDSP Statement of Grant Entitlement 2020
A yearly statement of grant entitlement is sent each year to RDSP holders to tell them how much the government will help out each year.
The RDSP is the Registered Disability Savings Plan, a Canadian Government program to help disabled individuals save for their future. Depending on the disability and income level of the disabled person (or their guardians/parents) the Government will also add allowances and bursaries to the account yearly, up to a lifetime maximum.
The RDSP is a key tool for parents of children with disabilities save for their loved one’s future. Once the child’s disability has been recognized by the CRA, an RDSP can be set up to start saving for the child’s future. The government’s additions will depend on the income level of the parents, the lower the income the more allowances and bursaries are added to the savings account.

The Registered Disability Savings Plan (RDSP) is a really long-term savings plan and it is designed to be just that, if you see penalties for early withdrawals, you’d understand.
It is that magical time of the year when if you have an #RDSP you will receive a Statement of Grant Entitlement for this coming year.
Why would you open an RESP for a disabled child that already has an RDSP set up? Not as crazy as you might think.
