GETTING GOVERNMENT GRANTS.

With a USC Education Savings Plan, the process of getting government grants is very straightforward.

  • You obtain a Social Insurance Number (S.I.N.) for your child.
  • You complete the grant application form available from your USCI Sales Representative or online.
  • USCI applies for grants on your behalf.
  • Grants are deposited directly into your USC Plan.
  • Grants are paid to your child for post-secondary studies as part of their Education Assistance Payments.

If your child does not pursue post-secondary education, grants are returned to the government. Income earned on the government grants, however, may be issued to the plan subscriber or transferred to their RRSP*.

For full details about government grants, you can read our Prospectus  (Select Final Long Form Prospectus English) or have a USCI Sales Representative  call you.

* Subject to Income Tax Act (Canada).
