Registered Disability Savings Plan (RDSP) Guide

A Registered Disability Savings Plan is a long-term savings plan intended to help people approved for the Disability Tax Credit save for the future.

Why DTC approval matters

DTC approval is connected to RDSP eligibility. That makes the DTC important not only for tax relief but also for long-term planning.

  • RDSPs can support long-term financial security.
  • Government grants and bonds may be available depending on eligibility.
  • Families often explore the RDSP after DTC approval.
