Your Notice of Assessment states the result as your RRSP deduction limit, and that is the official figure. A workplace pension lowers it by the pension adjustment on your T4.

Earned income is mostly salary and self-employment income; interest, dividends and capital gains don’t count. Room you don’t use carries forward with no end.

A contribution in the first 60 days of the next year can still be deducted for 2026, up to 1 Mar 2027.
