There are two key decisions you must make with a RRIF, how much money to withdraw from your RRIF and when. While there is a minimum amount you must take out each year, there is no maximum amount. All withdrawals are fully taxable.

Consider comparing loan costs with tax or other financial implications resulting from a withdrawal before proceeding.
