For a family RESP with three beneficiaries, what is the lifetime maximum contribution?

The lifetime RESP contribution limit is determined per beneficiary , not per RESP contract. The IFC material states that there is no annual RESP contribution limit, but the lifetime maximum that may be contributed for each beneficiary is $50,000 . A family RESP can contain more than one beneficiary, generally family members related to the subscriber by blood or adoption. Because this family plan has three beneficiaries, each beneficiary can have up to $50,000 of lifetime contributions allocated to them. Therefore, the combined maximum is $50,000 × 3 = $150,000 . The Canada Education Savings Grant limits are separate from the RESP contribution ceiling and do not reduce the $50,000 lifetime contribution amount. Consequently, $21,600 and $16,667 do not represent the applicable contribution limit. Therefore, A is correct.
