How to Claim an RESP on Your Tax Return

Office
Scarborough, one location
Led by
A CPA, since 2010
Languages
English, Bengali, Tamil

RESP contributions are not a deduction for the person who put the money in. The grant paid into the plan is not that person’s income either. When the student withdraws educational assistance payments for school, those payments are the student’s income and belong on the student’s return, usually with a slip from the promoter.

What to bring

Bring that slip with the student’s other slips, including a T2202 if there is tuition. The subscriber’s own return does not claim the contribution the way an RRSP receipt is claimed. If you are holding both an RRSP receipt and an RESP statement, keep them apart.
