Welcome Canadian Military Families!

Embark is honoured to partner with Together We Stand to help your family prepare for and navigate your child’s post-secondary journey with a Registered Education Savings Plan (RESP).

Built With Your Family In Mind

Canadian military families support our country in ways that many may find unimaginable. A testament to the resilience and commitment of our armed forces, the families who stand behind them sacrifice time with serving loved ones while navigating frequent relocation, cost of living challenges, and so much more. Thank you for taking care of our families; allow us to take care of yours.

Happy Military Family

Answers to Commonly Asked Questions About RESPs and Embark

When you contribute to an RESP, the government matches your contributions by 20% – up to $7,200 over the lifetime of your plan – through the Canada Education Savings Grant (CESG). Eligible beneficiaries can also receive additional support through the Canada Learning Bond (CLB) and other grants. Your savings grow tax-free in an RESP. This means that as long as the money is in the RESP, you won’t have to pay any taxes. When withdrawing your grants, contribution income and grant income, otherwise known as an educational assistance payment (EAP), the funds are taxed in the hands of the student, meaning they typically pay very little-to-no taxes on them, due to their low-income tax bracket.

A valid social insurance number (SIN) for both you and each child you’re saving for*
A Government-issued ID
Personal information for you and your child(ren)

Depending on your relationship with the student, you may either be eligible to open a family or individual registered education savings plan for them. See what the difference between the two types of plans are. *A valid SIN is needed for both the subscribers and beneficiaries in order to register your RESP with the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) for tax exemption and to attract government grants.

*Beneficiaries must be sibling by blood or marriage. Subscribers must be parent, grandparent, or sibling of the beneficiaries.
