Accumulated Income Payments (AIPs)

AIPs are amounts, usually paid to the subscriber, of the income earned from an RESP. An AIP does not include:

the payment of educational assistance payments (EAPs);
payments to a designated educational institution in Canada;
the refund of contributions to the subscriber or to the beneficiary;
transfers to another RESP; or
repayments under the Canada Education Savings Act or under a designated provincial program.

AIPs cannot be made as a single joint payment to separate subscribers.
