Info

LifeBuzz shares retirement news: What is a LIRA unlocking variation? Some provinces allow you to unlock more than 50% of your LIRA at age 65 or later. For example, in Saskatchewan, Alberta, and Manitoba, 100% of LIRA funds can be unlocked at age 65 and withdrawn or transferred as you choose. Quebec, British Columbia, and other jurisdictions still restrict full cash withdrawals until actual retirement despite age 65 eligibility. Check your province's specific regulations carefully.
