I am sure that RRSP withdrawal and rental income were not considered as income before. It was clearly written on their guide.
But when I call the 1-888-643-3750 number, the girl told me that RRSP withdrawal is considered as other income (the financial aid officer at my school said that she is sure that RRSP withdrawal is not considered as income, I guess she read the the same guide I read before).
Anybody knows where to get a definite answer to this question? Many thanks.
I just found the same web page (but it took me many hours) and I was about to delete my post. And I found out that you answered my question already.
It is amazing that the girl who did not know what was RRSP (because she asked me what was it) and told me that it counts as income.
So everybody should not take their words for it and should find out a fine print of the rules. It is especially important as they are making changes to the rules this year.
And Thank you again, netsino. Thank you for your help and your expertise advises to the others.
