I don't think contributions to an RESP are tax-deductible like RRSPs, but I could be wrong. I should double-check that.

I feel like there was a question about annual limits in our practice tests, and I think it was $2,500, but I might be mixing it up with another account type.

I remember that RESPs are tax-advantaged, but I can't recall if they are completely tax-free or if there are some conditions.

Okay, let me think this through. The question is asking about the correct statement regarding RESPs, and it provides some information about Justin and Yvonne's plan for their daughter Grace. I'll need to carefully review the answer options.

Wow, this is a tough one! I'm going to have to go with Option D and say that the contributions are eligible for a tax deduction. Wait, that can't be right - who would want to deduct contributions to an RESP? I'm so confused!
