Instructions
Who should use this form?
If you are the issuer of an unmatured registered retirement savings plan (RRSP) or the carrier of a registered retirement income fund (RRIF), you should use this form to directly transfer all or part of the property of an annuitant’s RRSP or RRIF, to the RRSP or RRIF of the annuitant’s current or former spouse or
Who completes this form?
Area I – The annuitant who requests the transfer completes and signs Area I. A transferor who completes Area I for the annuitant can attach a signed letter from the annuitant requesting the direct transfer, in place of a signature. If the transferor does not have complete information about the current or former spouse's or
Area II – The transferee completes and signs Area II, and it is countersigned by the current or former spouse or
Area III – The transferor completes and signs Area III.
Area IV – The transferee completes and signs Area IV.
Note
The annuitant does not have to reveal the contents of the court order or separation agreement to the issuer or carrier. However, the annuitant has to make it available (in a sealed envelope if desired) to the transferor.
Are there reporting requirements?
A direct transfer as described above does not cause the amount transferred to become income for the year in which the amount is transferred. However, the transferor will report the amount on a T4RSP or T4RIF slip issued to the annuitant identified in Part A of Area I. Similarly, the transferee should not issue an official receipt, since the amount transferred cannot be deducted.
