What is an RESP?

An RESP, or registered education savings plan, is a tax-advantaged savings account that helps you plan and save for a child’s post-secondary education. It can contain cash and other investment instruments, and the government will contribute funds towards your child’s education just for saving in one. Savings grow tax-free while in an RESP. When you withdraw funds for school, they’re taxed in the hands of the student, often meaning you’ll pay little to nothing in taxes, allowing you to put more of your savings towards their education.
