RRSP Tax Savings Calculator

Find out exactly how much tax you'll save — and what refund you'll get — from your RRSP contribution. Updated with 2026 federal and provincial tax rates.

💡

Your RRSP contribution is deducted from your taxable income

Every dollar you contribute to your RRSP reduces your taxable income by one dollar — saving you tax at your marginal rate. If you're in the 43% combined bracket, a $10,000 RRSP contribution puts $4,300 back in your pocket as a tax refund.

💡 RRSP Tips for Canadians

📈 Reinvest Your Refund

The most powerful RRSP strategy: take your tax refund and contribute it straight back into your RRSP next year. This creates a compounding tax-savings loop.

🎓 Home Buyers' Plan

First-time buyers can withdraw up to $60,000 from their RRSP tax-free to buy a home, and repay it over 15 years. A huge advantage for first-time buyers.

📚 Lifelong Learning Plan

Going back to school? Withdraw up to $10,000/year (max $20,000 total) from your RRSP tax-free for full-time education and repay over 10 years.

💍 Spousal RRSP

Higher-income earners can contribute to a Spousal RRSP to split retirement income. This reduces your combined tax bill in retirement significantly.
