Registered Retirement Income Fund (RRIF)

An RRIF is basically a continuation of your RRSP beyond the age of 71, with the exception that you must begin to receive taxable income.

You may choose any payment amount you wish, as long as it satisfies the mandatory minimum amount. The benefit of a RRIF (unlike an annuity) is that they are extremely flexible and remain under your control. Payments can be made monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually.
