401(k) vs RRSP - What's the Difference? If you're moving from the US to Canada or you have investments on both sides of the border, you may be wondering what the difference between a 401(k) and an RRSP is. Although the basic difference is that a 401(k) is American while an RRSP is Canadian, there's more to it than that.
RRSP, which stands for Registered Retirement Savings Plan is a Canadian tool created by the government which allows you to defer your tax. In other words, you pay tax on the investments (and their earnings) when you withdraw the money from your RRSP. When you invest using an RRSP as your vehicle, you're able to pay less tax each year. So it's best to only withdraw from an RRSP in years when your income is lower.
