Currently BC, Alberta, Newfoundland, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario, Nova Scotia, NWT and Yukon have exempted the RDSP as an asset and/or income. Quebec and New Brunswick have exempted the RDSP as an asset but are capping the amount of income that you are allowed to withdraw from the plan (QB $305 exempt monhtly and NB $800 exempt monthly). Prince Edward Island has announced that they will exempt the RDSP as an asset and income up until the low income threshold (see www.rdsp.com for more details), and Nunavut has currently not indicated how they will treat the RDSP.

We will be updating this blog consistently and letting you know as soon as the provinces announce their intentions.
