The deadline to make an RRSP contribution for a deduction on your 2011 personal income tax return is February 29, 2012. However, the deadline to submit your claim for a CPRSP payment to be deposited to your RRSP by February 29 is January 23, 2012. The BCMA will still review and process claims received after January 23, but cannot guarantee that the CPRSP payment will be available as an RRSP deduction for 2011.
The application is available from the BCMA.
