Hi there,
Are spousal RRSPs treated the same by the US as regular RRSPs? (i.e. same complexity as having one's own RRSPs)
My wife and I are both USA-Canada dual citizens (originally just US citizens) and I'd like to open up a spousal RRSP for her (she and I both have our own RRSPs already)
I saw this post from 2009, which suggests that spousal RRSPs are treated the same as regular RRSPs, but wanted to confirm if anything has changed since then.

Thanks so much.
