Deduct Withholding Taxes
  • If you are a resident of Canada, all payments from a RRIF must be declared as income for the year they are received. Tax must be withheld on amounts withdrawn in excess of the annual minimum amount that is required to be paid under the Income Tax Act (Canada). If you receive RRIF payments in scheduled installments, we will compute withholding tax on each individual RRIF installment payment based on the total sum of the scheduled installment payments for a calendar year and not on each individual payment.
