Why SRRSP?
We have a progressive tax system in Canada. That means tax rates go up as personal income increases.

Federal taxes on any income you earn in 2025. For instance, in 2025, your first $57,375 gets a gentle 15% federal tax. But earn over $253,414? Brace yourself for a whopping 33% marginal rate! And when you add provincial taxes, you could be looking at a jaw-dropping 50%+ rate!
When there's a significant income disparity between spouses, the combined tax burden could be higher than for couples with the same total household income but more evenly distributed earnings. Ouch!
Enter the SRRSP (Spousal Registered Retirement Savings Plan), this magical account works twofold, both presently and in the future:

Firstly, it allows the higher-earning spouse to reduce their taxable income in the contribution year, similar to regular RRSP contributions.
Secondly, it helps balance the couple's retirement income, potentially placing both partners in comparable tax brackets. This strategy aims to equalize tax payments and potentially lower the couple's overall tax liability in retirement.

Here's the kicker: The spousal RRSP belongs to the lower-earning spouse, and contributions to the SRRSP are made by the higher-earning spouse, and are based on that person’s RRSP contribution room. This is handy because the SRRSP deduction will reduce the higher-income earner’s taxable income and reduce their taxes.
