Contributions can attract the Canada Disability Savings Grant and Canada Disability Savings Bonds (income dependent), along with other grants and bonds.<\/p><p>Investment income earned in an RDSP will not be taxed until it is withdrawn. While Franklin will have to begin withdrawing from his RDSP by the end of the year in which he turns 60, he still has almost two decades to defer taxation on that income using his RDSP. Also, RDSPs are generally excluded from a person\u2019s assets for purposes of determining eligibility for provincial disability supports. As a result, Franklin should be able to accumulate wealth in his RDSP without impacting his access to provincial benefits.<\/p><p><strong>Henson Trust<\/strong><\/p><p>Depending upon the province, a person\u2019s assets, means or a combination of both are used as thresholds to access disability supports. If Franklin and Eleanor are concerned that their assets or income will be too high for Franklin to continue to receive such supports, they may consider whether a Henson trust is appropriate for them.<\/p><p><strong>&gt; What is it?<\/strong> A Henson trust gives the trustees complete discretion as to whether, when and how much to pay out to beneficiaries. Generally, the primary beneficiary is an individual receiving disability supports.<\/p><p><strong>&gt; Who is eligible?<\/strong> Anyone can set up a Henson trust in their lifetime or will. As requirements vary between provincial jurisdictions, it is important to consult a trusts lawyer to ensure proper set-up of the trust.<\/p><p><strong>&gt; What are the benefits?<\/strong> Depending on the jurisdiction, assets in a Henson trust are not generally considered to be assets of the beneficiary and do not impact access to provincial supports. The Henson trust can also be a powerful estate planning tool where capacity of the primary beneficiary is in question. The trust terms can effectively bypass the beneficiary\u2019s estate by providing for secondary beneficiaries of the trust assets once the primary beneficiary passes away.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-dd5593f elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"dd5593f\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-f8e7c44\" data-id=\"f8e7c44\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-731cc2a elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"731cc2a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Provincial disability supports involve funding as well as access to health benefits and programs.

PBE\u2019s are available both for testamentary and inter vivos trusts.<\/p><p><strong>\u2022 Rollover of RRSP\/RRIF to an RDSP:<\/strong> The RRSP or RRIF of a deceased individual can be rolled (i.e., transferred without immediate tax implication) to the RDSP of a child or grandchild who was financially dependent on the deceased because of physical or mental infirmity.
