An RRIF works like an RRSP, but in reverse. It converts your savings into income and lets you continue to shelter your investment from taxes after you turn 71.
You may choose any payment amount you wish as long as it satisfies the
mandatory minimum amount. The benefit of an RRIF (unlike an annuity) is
that they are extremely flexible and remain under your control.
