Sorry I think this has been asked a bunch but forgive me as I haven't seen a clear response.

I have ~$80k of unused contribution room in my RRSP. My deduction limit for the 2026 tax year will be the max of $33,810. To confirm, given my unused room that is available, can I contribute more than the $33.8k contribution limit for the year, i.e. $50k?

Would this just mean I can only use $33.8k as a deduction on my 2026 tax return, while the full $50k can be applied against my $80k unused room that is available?

Or am I unable to contribute more than the $33.8k limit for the year?

I just want to make sure I don't over contribute.
