If you've maxed out your TFSA, have no other debts, does it make sense to over contribute the $2000 in RRSP that we're allowed to? How would it work for taxes when withdrawing later? Or would it be better to just deposit it in a non-registered account?

I think I know the answer but wanna check. If you repay an RRSP after first time home buyers, for example 25K, Can the money be paid back to any account? For example I want to open an rrsp account on an online trading platform that is different from the bank I originally withdrew from.
