Canada Pension Plan Contributions - Retired Partner
This is in reply to your memorandum of August 8, 1996 concerning allocations made to a retired partner of XXXXXXXXXX.
You have indicated that you were not able to locate a copy of our memorandum relating to an October 26, 1995 request on the subject of Canada Pension Plan contributions and retired partnership. We have attached a copy hereto.
You have requested our view with respect to the allocation which is made to retired partners of XXXXXXXXXX. There is insufficient information to make a final determination of the nature of the payment to the retired partner. However, we will assume, subject to your verification, that the agreement to provide the "pension" is an agreement described in paragraph 96(1.1)(a) of the Act. Accordingly, the allocation under the agreement would be considered to be partnership/business income for most purposes of the Act. As set out in the attached letter it is our view that Canada Pension Plan contributions are not required on such income.
