Наколка с RESP
Узнал задним числом, когда вложился. Если вы открываете RESP своим детям на образование, то Канада докладывает туда 20%. Наколка заключается в том, что если ваш ребёнок будет учиться за пределами Канады, то все канадские гранты, включая эти 20%, придётся вернуть. Просто для информации.

The risks and restrictions of RESPs.
With a Registered Education Savings Plan comes both risk and restrictions. The greatest risk is that your child will not take part in qualifying post-secondary education. This will result in paying back the federal grant portion of the RESP, and could result in forfeiture of the earnings in the RESP. At best, the earnings can be transferred to an RRSP (maximum amount $50,000) if there is contribution room available, if the RESP has existed for at least 10 years, and the beneficiary is at least 21 years old and not pursuing post-secondary education. If no RRSP contribution room is available, the earnings can be returned to the subscriber, again only if the RESP has existed for at least 10 years, and the beneficiary is at least 21 years old. This will attract tax at the subscriber's marginal tax rate, plus an additional tax of 20%. If the RESP is held in a pooled group scholarship plan, the earnings may be completely lost, with the subscriber getting back less money than was originally contributed, due to fees paid to the promoter.
RESPs are restricted to being used for qualifying post-secondary education. With many plans, there is a set payment schedule which must be followed. If the payment schedule is not followed, interest may be charged, or the plan may be terminated.
If you are still determined to start an RESP, make sure you read and understand all the details first!

Да, это всё я знал, поскольку в контракте записано, хоть и мелким шрифтом. Всё это не проблема. Однако про то, что гранты пропадают, если уехать из Канады, не написано нигде, кроме внутренних документов для продавцов RESP. А на рекламных и государственных сайтах написано, что за заграничный вуз можно платить из RESP. Только тонкости вроде необходимости возврата грантов как-то умалчиваются.

Советую посмотреть список qualified educational institutions! Вы будете приятно удивлены! Штатовские, европейские и российские универы туда входят, а значит ничего возвращать не надо. Только надо соблюсти условия резидентства на момент снимания денег. И еще, это все справедливо для независимых RESP, если вы вложили в pool, то там проблем куча.
