Most Canadians are waiting until the last minute to contribute to an RRSP.
A new poll by Harris/Decima says one third of Canadians still have to put money into their RRSP for 2012 before the March 1st deadline.
Fifty-one per cent also say they’ll likely wait until the last 48 hours.
CIBC spokesperson Christina Kramer says it’s an investment in your future, and more people need to start making it a priority.
Kramer says even if you’re running short on money this year, contributing something is better than nothing.
