3 RESP GUIDE ABOUT RESPS 3 ABOUT RESPS AND HERITAGE BENEFITS AN EDUCATION SAVINGS VEHICLE An RESP is an education savings plan that is registered by the federal government, through the Canada Revenue Agency. INCLUDES GOVERNMENT GRANTS The Canada Education Savings Grant ( CESG ) provides up to $7,200 per child 1. The Canada Learning Bond ( CLB ) provides up to $2,000 per child for qualifying families 1. Provincial government grants and incentives are available to qualifying families depending on family net income and/or residency. OFFERS TAX BENEFITS Investment earnings on contributions up to $50,000 are taxsheltered until withdrawn by the student (beneficiary), taxed in the student s tax bracket. OFFERS LOWER RISK INVESTMENTS Subscribers contributions and government grants are conservatively invested in lower risk fixed-income securities such as bonds and GICs that typically earn a competitive risk adjusted return. PROVIDES MORE POTENTIAL INCOME Income (earned in the plans) is pooled, and may be invested in a diversified portfolio of corporate bonds, Canadian equities, US and Canadian Exchange Traded Funds ( ETFs ). The aim of this investment strategy is to increase returns through diversification of products and stock market exposure. INCLUDES ELIGIBLE SCHOOLS Students can attend full-time or part-time programs in Canada or abroad. Eligible institutions include all universities, community colleges, CEGEP 2, private vocational schools, distance education and correspondence courses 1. IF BENEFICIARY DOES NOT PURSUE POST-SECONDARY EDUCATION Subscribers will receive their net contributions after the maturity date. There are many options available if the student does not pursue post-secondary education, including transferring to another child, transferring money 3 to an RRSP, RDSP or withdrawing the income as an accumulated income payment 1. ANYONE CAN START SAVING Parents, grandparents, other family members and friends can all help to save towards a child s post-secondary education. 1 Certain conditions apply. See prospectus for full details. 2 CEGEP means Collège d enseignement général et professionnel. 3 You may also be allowed to withdraw and transfer the accumulated income of up to $50,000 of earnings per subscriber from your RESP to your RRSP or spousal RRSP.

16 TESTIMONIALS When I was about one year old, my parents decided to invest the money they received from their family allowance into an RESP. I was not aware at that early age of the efforts my parents had to make to put money aside for my future, despite their modest income. Thanks to all their efforts, I will graduate this spring and I will be able to sleep without a care because I will have no student loan debt. Thank you Mom and Dad. VALERIE MICHAUD, Rivière-du-Loup, PQ My parents thought well ahead in planning to pay for my post-secondary education. I am going to make my parents proud by making effective use of their money and having a great career (my goal is to become a pharmacist). I am very lucky to be a Heritage beneficiary. SHRADDHA PATEL, Brampton, ON Growing up in a low-income family, I was raised to understand the value of money and work towards my own goals. Because of my Heritage RESP, I am halfway towards earning my degree to become a registered nurse. I cannot thank my parents enough for thinking about my education early in my life. CLAIRE HORTON, Fort Langley, BC Thanks to Heritage and my grandparents, I am able to pursue my professional dreams and volunteer my time to help great causes. I am pursuing medicine through a Bachelor of Science Major in Biology and I couldn t have done it without my RESP!
