When making your calculations to determine your Canadian income tax deductions for RRSP contributions, remember that certain deductions, such as net losses from rental properties or employment-related expenses including union dues or traveling expenses will reduce your earned income
which reduces your RRSP contribution limit for the following year. Also excluded from “earned income” are certain types of income including interest, dividends, capital gains, and most pension income.
