At the time of death, an individual may have an RRSP. The amount you include in income of the deceased annuitant can vary depending on whether or not the RRSP has matured.

As well, any balances remaining for withdrawals under the Home Buyers' Plan or Lifelong Learning Plan may have to be included in income on the final income tax return.
