I am unemployed and receive RAV but would like to continue saving for retirement. Can I still add money to my 3a account even if I am unemployed?

Hi there,

You are entitled to contribute to 3a retirement savings for as long as you receive unemployment benefits. The maximum annual contribution for employed individuals applies.

Best regards from Moneyguru
