The RRSP contribution deadline for the 2021 tax year is March 1, 2022. Your contribution limit for 2021 is 18% of your 2020 earned income, to a maximum of $27,830, with certain adjustments (e.g. less any Pension Adjustment appearing on your T4 tax slip and plus any unused contribution room carried forward from previous years).

For your exact contribution limit, check your latest Notice of Assessment, Notice of Reassessment or T1028 form, or log on to your Canada Revenue Agency account at http://www.cra-arc.gc.ca/myaccount.

You can also make your 2022 contribution any time starting January 1, 2022 to benefit from additional tax-deferred compounding. The maximum RRSP contribution room you can earn for 2022 is $29,210.
