They have not taken any funds from the RESP as Sam has not really needed any financial help, as she is living at home.
Explain their options and what you would recommend to them regarding the RESP funds and what the tax implications are.
You can assume that they contributed $36,000 and got $7,200 in CESG grants, so that $68,000- $24,800 will be taxable income to Sam. Be clear and specific on what exactly you recommend they do.
