Growing your SPP savings is easier than you think
|
|
|
The RRSP deadline is March 2nd, 2026. Make sure you're topped up! With a variety of contribution options, you can pick which works best for you.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Make it simple with pre-authorized payments
|
|
|
It’s the easiest way to stay consistent. You can set up pre-authorized contributions from your bank account or credit card through SPP and let your savings grow automatically.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Contribute through online banking
|
|
|
Add Saskatchewan Pension Plan as a payee at your financial institution using your SPP account number and make one-time or recurring bill payments from your account.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Contribute online or via phone with a credit card
|
|
|
Give your savings a quick boost in minutes online or by calling SPP’s office for a one-time credit card contribution.
|
|
|

RRSP contribution deadline
|
|
|
Friendly reminder: The 2025 RRSP contribution deadline is March 2, 2026. With SPP, you can contribute any amount, as long as you have RRSP room. Check your 2024 Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) Notice of Assessment to see how much room you have.
Tax receipts will be available on MySPP and sent according to your communication preferences. You’ll either receive yours by mail or be notified by email when it’s ready online. The first batch is issued early January for contributions received between March 4, 2025 and December 31, 2025. The second batch will be issued mid March for contributions received between January 1, 2026 and March 2, 2026.

Move funds from your unlocked Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP), Registered Retirement Income Fund (RRIF), Registered Pension Plan (RPP), or Deferred Profit Sharing Plan (DPSP) directly into SPP with no tax implications. There’s no limit to how much you can transfer in, and SPP doesn’t charge fees when you transfer into the plan.

|
|
Start now. Your future self will thank you.
|
|
|
Retirement might feel far away, but it comes faster than you think. The good news is that a few simple steps now can make a big difference later.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Set a retirement income goal
|
|
|
|
Set a monthly income target that covers the essentials and leaves room for fun. Use our wealth calculator to help you set a goal, and remember to factor in inflation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Canada Pension Plan (CPP) benefits provide a helpful base, but most people need additional savings to achieve their ideal lifestyle. That’s where your SPP comes in.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Start small and be consistent
|
|
|
|
Even modest amounts add up over time. Set up pre-authorized contributions to stay on track, and increase them as your income grows (up to your available RRSP room).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Find extra dollars to save
|
|
|
|
Trim a few small costs and redirect them to your savings. Cancel unused subscriptions, compare phone/internet plans, or bring lunch or coffee from home. Put those extra dollars to work in SPP.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Make a plan and review it regularly
|
|
|
|
Check in at least once a year or after any life changes. Adjust your goal, contribution amount, and timeline as needed to stay on course, and remember you can also move money between funds (interfund transfers) if you want to match your investments with your needs.
