Most RRSP's with employer matched contributions, you have to be vested for a period of time before you can "keep" the employers contribution. That doesn't mean when you started working, but when you entered the plan.

The amount of time varies... some places from 1 year, others 4 years.

If you have been in the plan since you first started (4 years).. you are probably ok.. but I would still try to find out.. either from your companys website (if they have one), or if you get a statement for the RRSP.. check with the company that is holding the RRSP.

Last resort.. ask a benefit adminstrator in your HR dept... just be careful how you go about asking.
