A. She can convert her RRSP to a locked-in retirement income fund (LRIF). B. She can convert her RRSP to a registered retirement income fund (RRIF) this year or by December 31st of next year. C. She can take the entire amount in cash, with no tax consequences because her RRSP funds were tax-sheltered. D. She can purchase a registered term or life annuity.

Suggested Answer: B Vote an answer

Explanation
A registered retirement savings plan (RRSP) is a retirement savings and investing vehicle for employees and the self-employed in Canada. Contributions to an RRSP are tax-deductible and grow tax-deferred until withdrawal. However, RRSPs have a maturity date of December 31st of the year in which the holder turns 71.
By then, the holder must convert the RRSP to a registered retirement income fund (RRIF), purchase an annuity, or withdraw the funds in cash (subject to tax). Therefore, B is the correct answer.

Answer should be option D - She can purchase a registered term or life annuity. B is wrong because she must convert her RRSP to a RRIF before Dec 31st of the current year in which she turns 71.
