There is no maximum withdrawal limit toward your RRIF, however, there are important tax considerations that apply when withdrawing from RRIF account.
Here’s how it works:
- All withdrawals are fully taxable.
- If the withdrawn amount is more than the minimum amount, withholding tax will be applied on the excess amount. Typically, the financial institution will hold back an amount, based on the withholding tax rates, and pay it directly to the government on your behalf.
Withholding tax rates
Amount in excess of the minimum amount | Withholding tax rate (except in Quebec) |
Up to $5,000 | 10% |
Between $5,000 and $15,000 | 20% |
More than $15,000 | 30% |
