Foreign income
As a resident of Canada, you have to report your income from all sources, both inside and outside Canada.
How to report foreign income and other amounts
Report foreign income and other amounts (such as expenses and foreign taxes paid) in Canadian dollars. Use the Bank of Canada exchange rate in effect on the day you received the income or paid the expense. If the amount was paid at various times in the year, visit the Bank of Canada web site or contact us for an average annual rate.
Tax Tip
If you paid foreign taxes on foreign income you received, do not reduce the amount you report by the amount of tax the foreign country withheld. Instead, you may be able to claim a foreign tax credit when you calculate your federal and provincial or territorial taxes. For more information, see Form T2209, Federal Foreign Tax Credits, and Form T2036, Provincial or Territorial Foreign Tax Credit.
Specified foreign property
Answer the question on page 2 of your return if you own or hold specified foreign property.
For information on the property you are required to report, see Form T1135, Foreign Income Verification Statement.
Note
Specified foreign property does not include:
- property in your registered retirement savings plan (RRSP), pooled registered pension plan (PRPP), registered retirement income fund (RRIF), registered pension plan (RPP), or tax-free savings account (TFSA);
- foreign investments held in Canadian mutual funds;
- property you used or held exclusively in the course of carrying on your active business; or
- your personal‑use property.
Tick “Yes” if the total cost of all the specified foreign property you own or hold was more than CAN$100,000 in 2015 and complete and file Form T1135.
The completed Form T1135 must be filed either electronically or attached to your paper return. Even if you do not have to file a return, you must file Form T1135 on or before your filing due date. See What date is your return for 2015 due? or Form T1135 for more information about filing.
Note
The reassessment period for your return is three years after the day your notice of assessment is sent to you. This reassessment period is extended from three years to six years if:
- you did not report income from a specified foreign property on your return; and
- you did not file Form T1135 on time, or you did not identify specified foreign property, or you identified it incorrectly, on Form T1135.
Shares of a non-resident corporation
If you (either alone or with related persons) held 10% or more of the shares of a non‑resident corporation, you may have to complete and file Form T1134, Information Return Relating to Controlled and Not-Controlled Foreign Affiliates. For more information, see Form T1134.
Loans and transfers to non-resident trusts
If in 2015 or a previous year you loaned or transferred funds or property to a non-resident trust, you may have to complete and file Form T1141, Information Return in Respect of Transfers or Loans to a Non-Resident Trust. For more information, see Form T1141.
Beneficiaries of non-resident trusts
If in 2015 you received funds or property from, or were indebted to, a non-resident trust under which you were a beneficiary, you may have to complete and file Form T1142, Information Return in Respect of Distributions from and Indebtedness to a Non-Resident Trust. For more information, see Form T1142.
Total income (lines 101 to 146)
You have to report as income most amounts you received in 2015.
Amounts that are not taxed
You do not have to report certain amounts as income, including the following:
- any GST/HST credit or CCTB payments, including those from related provincial or territorial programs;
- child assistance payments and the supplement for handicapped children paid by the province of Quebec;
- compensation received from a province or territory if you were a victim of a criminal act or a motor vehicle accident;
- lottery winnings;
- most gifts and inheritances;
- amounts paid by Canada or an ally (if the amount is not taxable in that country) for disability or death due to war service;
- most amounts received from a life insurance policy following someone's death;
- most payments of the type commonly referred to as strike pay you received from your union, even if you perform picketing duties as a requirement of membership; and
Note
Income earned on any of the above amounts (such as interest you earn when you invest lottery winnings) is taxable.
- most amounts received from a tax-free savings account (TFSA). For more information, go to Tax-free savings account (TFSA), or see Guide RC4466, Tax Free Savings Account (TFSA), Guide for Individuals.
Retroactive lump-sum payments
If you received a lump-sum payment of eligible income in 2015, parts of which were for previous years after 1977, you must report the whole payment on the appropriate line of your return for 2015.
We will not reassess the returns for previous years to include this income. However, you can ask us to tax the parts for previous years as if you received them in those years. We can apply this calculation to the parts that relate to years throughout which you were resident in Canada if the total of those parts is $3,000 or more (not including interest) and the result is better for you.
Eligible income includes:
- employment income and damages for loss of employment received by order or judgment of a competent tribunal, as an arbitration award, or under a lawsuit settlement agreement;
- periodic pension benefits, which do not include Canada Pension Plan or Quebec Pension Plan benefits (see line 114);
- wage-loss replacement plan benefits;
- support payments for a spouse, common-law partner, or child;
- employment or unemployment insurance benefits; and
- Canadian Forces members and veterans income replacement benefits.
To ask us to apply this calculation, attach to your paper return all completed copies of Form T1198, Statement of Qualifying Retroactive Lump-Sum Payment, you have received. We will tell you the results on your notice of assessment or notice of reassessment.
Loans and transfers of property
You may have to report income, such as dividends (line 120) or interest (line 121), from property (including money and any replacement property) you loaned or transferred to your spouse or common-law partner, child, or other relative. You may also have to report capital gains (line 127) or losses from property you loaned or transferred to your spouse or common-law partner.
For more information, see interpretation bulletins IT-510, Transfers and Loans of Property Made After May 22, 1985 to a Related Minor, and IT-511, Interspousal and Certain Other Transfers and Loans of Property.
Split income of a child under 18
Certain income of a child who was born in 1998 or later is not subject to the rules discussed under "Loans and transfers of property" in the previous section. A special tax of 29% applies to the following amounts received directly or through a trust (other than a mutual fund trust) or partnership:
- shareholder benefits relating to shares not listed on a designated stock exchange; and
- dividends from shares (not including those in a mutual fund corporation or listed on a designated stock exchange).
Note
A child under 18 years of age may be subject to the tax on split income for dividends on shares of a corporation. Any taxable capital gain from the disposition of those shares to a person who does not deal at arm's length with the child will be deemed to be a dividend. This deemed dividend is subject to the tax on split income and is considered to be an "other than eligible dividend" for the purposes of the dividend tax credit.
The above also applies to income from a trust (other than a mutual fund trust) or partnership for providing property or services to (or in support of) a business operated by:
- someone related to the child at any time in the year;
- a corporation that has a specified shareholder who is related to the child at any time in the year; or
- a professional corporation that has a shareholder who is related to the child at any time in the year.
The special tax also applies to the income of a child from a partnership or trust (other than a mutual fund trust), that is derived from a business or rental property of a partnership or trust if a person who was related to the child at any time in the year:
- is actively engaged on a regular basis in the activity of the partnership or trust of earning that income; or
- in the case where the income is from a partnership, has an interest in the partnership directly or indirectly through other partnerships.
The special tax does not apply if:
- the income is from property the child inherits from a parent;
- the income is from property the child inherits from anyone else and, during the year, he or she is enrolled full-time in a post-secondary institution or is eligible for the disability tax credit (see line 316);
- the child was a non-resident of Canada at any time in the year; or
- neither of the child's parents was a resident of Canada at any time in the year.
How to report this income
The child must report the income on the appropriate lines of his or her return and can claim a deduction on line 232. The special tax is included in the calculation of his or her federal and provincial or territorial taxes. To calculate this tax, complete Form T1206, Tax on Split Income. Attach the form to the child's paper return.
Tax shelters
To claim deductions, losses, or credits from tax shelter investments, attach to your paper return any applicable T5003 slips, a completed Form T5004, Claim for Tax Shelter Loss or Deduction, or T5013 slips. Your form must show the tax shelter identification number.
Tax Tip
For information about how to protect yourself against tax schemes, go to Tax Alert.
Line 101 – Employment income
Report the total of amounts shown in box 14 of all your T4 slips. If you have not received your slip by early April or if you have any questions about an amount on a slip, contact your employer. For more information, see What if you are missing information?.
If you have employment expenses, see line 229 for more information.
Notes
If you report employment income on line 101, you can claim the Canada employment amount on line 363 of Schedule 1.
If you received a housing allowance and/or an amount for eligible utilities as a member of the clergy and they are shown in box 14 of your T4 slips, subtract the amount shown in box 30 of your T4 slips from the amount shown in box 14 and report the difference on line 101. Report the amount shown in box 30 of your T4 slips on line 104.
If you have employment income from another country, report it on line 104 of your return.
If tips you received through employment are not shown on your T4 slips, report them on line 104.
You may be able to make Canada Pension Plan (CPP) contributions on certain employment income for which no contribution was made (for example, tips not shown on your T4 slips) or extra contributions on T4 income if you had more than one employer in the year. For more information, see Making additional CPP contributions under line 308.
Tax Tip
Your contributions to the CPP or Quebec Pension Plan (box 16 or 17 of your T4 slips and any amount on line 421) determine the benefit amount you will receive under either of these plans. If there are no contributions shown in box 16 or 17 of your T4 slips or if you have any questions about your contribution amount, contact your employer.
Emergency services volunteers
In 2015 you may have received a payment from a government, a municipality, or another public authority for your work as a volunteer ambulance technician, a firefighter, or a search, rescue, or other type of emergency worker. The T4 slips issued by this authority will generally show only the taxable part of the payment, which is the part that is more than $1,000.
The exempt part of a payment is shown in box 87 of your T4 slips.
As an emergency services volunteer, you may qualify for the volunteer firefighters’ amount (VFA) or the search and rescue volunteers’ amount (SRVA). See lines 362 and 395.
If you are eligible for the $1,000 exemption and either the VFA or the SRVA, you must choose which one you would like to claim.
If you choose to claim the exemption, report only the amounts shown in box 14 of your T4 slips on line 101.
If the authority employed you (other than as a volunteer) for the same or similar duties or if you choose to claim the VFA or the SRVA, the full payment is taxable. You must add the amounts shown in boxes 87 and 14 of your T4 slips and report the result on line 101.
Security option benefits
Report taxable benefits you received in (or carried forward to) 2015 on certain security options you exercised. If you report any taxable benefits, see line 249 for more information.
For eligible securities under option agreements exercised up to and including 4 p.m., Eastern time, on March 4, 2010, that were not granted by a Canadian controlled private corporation (CCPC), an income deferral of the taxable benefit may have been allowable subject to an annual limit of $100,000 on the fair market value of the eligible securities.
If you exercised an option for eligible securities after 4 p.m., Eastern time, on March 4, 2010, that was not granted by a CCPC, the election to defer the benefit is no longer available for those securities.
Your notice of assessment or notice of reassessment will show the remaining balance of your deferred amounts. For more information, see Guide T4037, Capital Gains, or contact us.
Commissions (box 42)
Report on line 102 the total commissions shown in box 42 of all your T4 slips you received as an employee.

- Include all UCCB amounts you received in 2015 in the income of the dependant for whom the amount for an eligible dependant (line 305 of Schedule 1) is being claimed. If there is no claim for the amount for an eligible dependant, you can choose to include all UCCB amounts in the income of a child for whom you received the UCCB. If you choose this option, enter on line 185, located below and to the left of line 117, the amount shown in box 10 of the RC62 slip. Do not report the amount on line 117.
- Include all UCCB amounts you received in 2015 in your own income. If you choose this option, report on line 117 the amount shown in box 10 of the RC62 slip. Do not enter the amount on line 185.
Note
The UCCB income you report will not be included in the calculation of your GST/HST credit, Canada child tax benefit (CCTB) payments and any related provincial or territorial credits and benefits, the social benefits repayment (line 235), the refundable medical expense supplement (line 452), or the working income tax benefit (WITB) (line 453).
In 2015, you or your spouse or common-law partner may have repaid an amount included in your or your spouse's or common-law partner's income for a previous year. If this applies to you, see line 213.
Lump-sum benefits - If you received the UCCB in 2015 as a lump-sum, parts of which were for a previous year, you must report the full payment in 2015. Read the instructions above on how to report this income.
We will not reassess the returns for the previous years to include this income. However, if you have to report on line 117 a UCCB lump-sum payment you received in 2015, and the total of the parts that relate to previous years is $300 or more, we will calculate the tax payable on those parts as if you received them in those years only if the result is better for you. Box 10 of the RC62 slip will show the breakdown of the payment as it applies to each year. We will tell you the results on your notice of assessment or notice of reassessment.
Note
This special calculation will not apply if you designated the lump-sum payment benefit to a dependant and entered the amount on line 185.
Line 119 – Employment insurance and other benefits
Report the amount shown in box 14 of your T4E slip, minus any amount shown in box 18 (if applicable). If you have already repaid excess benefits you received directly to the payer of your benefits, you may be able to claim a deduction. See line 232.

Report on line 120 the taxable amount of all dividends from taxable Canadian corporations, as shown in boxes 11 and 25 of T5 slips, boxes 25 and 31 of T4PS slips, boxes 32 and 50 of T3 slips, and boxes 130 and 133 of T5013 slips.
If you did not receive an information slip, you must calculate the taxable amount of "other than eligible dividends," by multiplying the actual amount of "other than eligible dividends" you received by 118%. Report the result on line 180.
You must also calculate the taxable amount of eligible dividends by multiplying the actual amount of eligible dividends you received by 138%. Report the combined total of eligible dividends and "other than eligible dividends" on line 120.
Dividends received from taxable Canadian corporations qualify for the dividend tax credit, which can reduce the amount of tax you pay. You can claim this credit when you calculate your federal and provincial or territorial taxes. Read the instructions for line 425.
Report on line 121 any foreign dividends you received.
Notes
Special rules apply for income from property (including shares) one family member lends or transfers to another. For more information, see Loans and transfers of property.
For children born in 1998 or later who report certain dividends, see Split income of a child under 18.
Tax tip
In some cases, it may be better for you to report all the taxable dividends your spouse or common-law partner received from taxable Canadian corporations. You can do this only if, by including the dividends in your income, you will be able to claim or increase your claim for the spouse or common-law partner amount (line 303 of Schedule 1).
If you use this option, you may be able to take better advantage of the dividend tax credit. Do not include these dividends in your spouse's or common-law partner's income when you calculate claims such as the spouse or common-law partner amount on line 303 or amounts transferred from your spouse or common-law partner on Schedule 2.

Line 121 – Interest and other investment income
The amounts you report for the year depend on the type of investment and when you made it. Report on line 121 amounts you received, minus any part of those amounts you reported in previous years. Also report amounts credited to you but that you did not receive (such as amounts that were reinvested).
The amounts to report include those shown in boxes 13, 14, and 15 of T5 slips, box 25 of T3 slips, and boxes 128 and 135 of T5013 slips. You also have to report the interest on any tax refund you received in 2015, which is shown on your notice of assessment or notice of reassessment.
If you received foreign interest or dividend income, report it in Canadian dollars. For more information, see How to report foreign income and other amounts.
If you own an interest in a foreign investment entity or an interest in a foreign insurance policy, you may have to report investment income. For more information, contact us.
If, as a shareholder in a foreign corporation, you received certain shares in another foreign corporation, you may not have to report any amount in income for receiving those shares. For more information, contact us.
Notes
Special rules apply for income from property (including money) one family member lends or transfers to another. For more information, see Loans and transfers of property.
Generally, when you invest your money in your child's name, you have to report the income from those investments. However, if you deposited Canada child tax benefit or universal child care benefit payments into a bank account or trust in your child's name, the interest earned on those payments is your child's income.
For children born in 1998 or later who report certain investment income, see Split income of a child under 18.
How to report this income
List your investments in Part II of Schedule 4. Generally, you report your share of interest from a joint investment based on how much you contributed to it.
Example
Sally and Roger received a T5 slip from their joint bank account showing the $400 interest they earned in 2015. Sally had deposited $4,000 and Roger had deposited $1,000 into the account.
Roger reports $80 interest, calculated as follows:
Sally reports $320 interest, calculated as follows:
Bank accounts
Report interest paid or credited to you in 2015, even if you did not receive an information slip. You may not receive a T5 slip for amounts under $50.
Term deposits, guaranteed investment certificates (GICs), and other similar investments
On these investments, interest builds up over a period of time, usually longer than one year. Generally, you do not receive the interest until the investment matures or you cash it in. For information about Canada savings bonds, see Canada savings bonds.
The income you report is based on the interest you earned during each complete investment year. For example, if you made a long-term investment on July 1, 2014, report on your return for 2015 the interest that accumulated to the end of June 2015, even if you do not receive a T5 slip. Report the interest from July 2015 to June 2016 on your 2016 return.
Note
If your investment agreement specifies a different interest rate each year, report the amount shown on your T5 slips, even if it is different from what the agreement specifies or what you received. The issuer of your investment can tell you how this amount was calculated.
For most investments you made in 1990 or later, you have to report the interest each year, as you earn it. For information about reporting methods for investments made in 1989 or earlier, use Info-Tax, one of our Tax Information Phone Service, or see Interpretation Bulletin IT-396, Interest Income.
Canada savings bonds
Interest on a regular interest (R) bond is paid annually until the bond matures or you cash it in. Interest on a compound interest (C) bond is not paid until you cash it in. For both kinds of bonds, report the amount shown on the T5 slips.
Treasury bills
If you disposed of a treasury bill at maturity in 2015, you have to report as interest the difference between the price you paid and the proceeds of disposition shown on your T5008 slips or account statement.
If you disposed of a treasury bill before maturity in 2015, you may also have to report a capital gain or loss. For more information, see Guide T4037, Capital Gains.
Earnings on life insurance policies
Report the earnings that have accumulated on certain life insurance policies in the same way as you do for other investments. Your insurance company will send you a T5 slip. For policies bought before 1990, you can choose to report accumulated earnings annually by telling your insurer in writing.
Line 122 – Net partnership income: limited or non-active partners only
Report on line 122 your share of the net income or loss from a partnership if the partnership did not include a rental or farming operation and you were either:
- a limited partner; or
- not actively involved in the partnership and not otherwise involved in a business or profession similar to that carried on by the partnership.
Report your net rental income or loss from a partnership on line 126. Report your net farming income or loss from a partnership on line 141.
If none of the above applies to you, report your share of the partnership's net income or loss on the applicable self-employment line of your return (lines 135 to 143).
Notes
If the partnership has a loss, the amount you can claim could be limited. For more information, contact us.
For children born in 1998 or later who report certain limited or non-active partnership income, see Split income of a child under 18
If you have a tax shelter, see Tax shelters.
If all or part of the income was earned in a province or territory other than your province or territory of residence, or if it was earned outside Canada, complete and attach to your return Form T2203, Provincial and Territorial Taxes for 2015 - Multiple Jurisdictions.
Attach to your paper return a T5013 slip. If you did not receive one, attach a copy of the partnership's financial statement. See lines 135 to 143.
Note
You may have to make Canada Pension Plan contributions on the net income you report on line 122. See line 222.
Line 125 – Registered disability savings plan (RDSP) income
If you have received income from an RDSP in 2015, report the amount shown in box 131 of your T4A slips. For more information, go to Registered disability savings plan (RDSP), see Information Sheet RC4460, Registered Disability Savings Plan, or contact us.
Note
The RDSP income you report will not be included in the calculation of your GST/HST credit, your Canada child tax benefit (CCTB) payments (including those from related provincial or territorial programs), the social benefits repayment (line 235), the refundable medical expense supplement (line 452), or the working income tax benefit (WITB) (line 453).
Line 126 – Rental income
Report your gross rental income on line 160 and your net rental income or loss on line 126. If you have a loss, show the amount in brackets. If you were a member of a partnership, also report any amount shown in boxes 107 and 110 of your T5013 slips or any amount the partnership allocated to you in its financial statements.
You must include with your paper return a statement or Form T776, Statement of Real Estate Rentals showing your rental income and expenses for the year. If it applies, also include your T5013 slips or a copy of the partnership's financial statement.
For more information, see Guide T4036, Rental Income, which includes Form T776.
If you have a tax shelter, see Tax shelters.
Line 127 – Taxable capital gains
You may have a capital gain or loss when you dispose of property, such as when you sell real estate or shares (including those in mutual funds). Generally, if the total of your gains for the year is more than the total of your losses, you have to report 50% of the difference as income. However, if the total of your losses for the year is more than the total of your gains, you cannot deduct the difference on your return for the year. See the next section How to report these gains.
If you have a capital gain or loss from selling or redeeming your mutual fund units or shares, get Information Sheet RC4169, Tax Treatment of Mutual Funds for Individuals, for more information.
If you realized a capital gain as a result of a mortgage foreclosure or conditional sales repossession, this gain is not included in income when we calculate your GST/HST credit, your Canada child tax benefit payments, your child disability benefit payments, the social benefits repayment (line 235), the age amount (line 301 of Schedule 1), the refundable medical expenses supplement (line 452), the working income tax benefit (WITB) (line 453), the Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, or Newfoundland and Labrador tax reductions or the Saskatchewan active families benefit. If this applies to you, contact us.
When you donate capital property to a registered charity or other qualified donees, we consider you to have disposed of the property at its fair market value. As a result, you may have to report a capital gain or loss for that property. There are special rules for donations of certain property. For more information, see Guide T4037, Capital Gains, and Pamphlet P113, Gifts and Income Tax.
For donations of publicly traded securities, the inclusion rate of zero also applies to any capital gain realized on the exchange of shares of the capital stock of a corporation for those publicly traded securities that were donated. This treatment has certain conditions. If the exchanged securities are partnership interests, a special calculation is required to determine the capital gain to be reported. For more information about exchangeable securities, see Pamphlet P113, Gifts and Income Tax.
Donations of certain flow-through share properties may result in a deemed capital gain subject to an inclusion rate of 50%. For more information, see Pamphlet P113, Gifts and Income Tax.
How to report these gains
Complete Schedule 3 and attach it to your paper return. Generally, if all your gains or losses are shown on T4PS, T5, or T5013 slips, report the total of amounts on line 174 of Schedule 3. If they are shown on T3 slips, report the total of amounts on line 176. Also attach these documents to your paper return. If your securities transactions are shown on an account statement or a T5008 slip, use the information on these documents to help you complete Schedule 3. For more information about these and other capital dispositions, see Guide T4037, Capital Gains.
If the result on line 199 of Schedule 3 is positive (gain), report the amount on line 127 of your return. If the result is negative (loss), do not report the amount on line 127 of your return. We will register it in our system. Keep track of this loss, which you can use to reduce your taxable capital gains of other years. The following notes explain how to do this.
Notes
You may have incurred a net capital loss in 2015 you would like to apply against taxable capital gains you reported on your 2012, 2013, or 2014 return. For more information and to carry back the loss, get Form T1A, Request for Loss Carryback, and Guide T4037, Capital Gains. Attach a completed Form T1A to your paper return (or send one to us separately). Do not file an amended return for the year or years to which you apply the loss.
If you are preparing a return for a person who died in 2015, see Guide T4011, Preparing Returns for Deceased Persons, for more information about special rules that apply to claiming these losses.
Tax tip
You may be able to claim a deduction for your capital gains. See line 254.
Line 128 – Support payments received
Report on line 156 the total of all taxable and non-taxable support payments you received for yourself and/or for a child (or, if you are the payer, the payments that were repaid to you under a court order) in 2015. Report on line 128 only the taxable amount.
Note
Most child support payments received according to a written agreement or court order dated after April 1997 are not taxable. For more information, see Guide P102, Support Payments.
Tax tips
You may be able to claim a deduction on line 256 for the part of the payments you received from a resident of another country that is tax-free in Canada because of a tax treaty. If you do not know if any part of the payment is tax-free, contact us.
You may be able to claim a deduction on line 220 for support payments you repaid under a court order. For more information, see Guide P102, Support Payments.

Notes
If you report a refund of RRSP premiums shown in box 28 of your T4RSP slips and you rolled over an amount to a registered disability savings plan (RDSP), you may be able to claim a deduction (see line 232). For more information about RDSPs, go to Registered disability savings plan (RDSP) or see Guide T4040, RRSPs and Other Registered Plans for Retirement.
Regardless of your age, if you received income shown on a T4RSP slip on the death of your spouse or
common-law partner, report it on line 129 even if the amount is transferred to an RRSP.
Tax tips
If unused RRSP contributions you made after 1990 were refunded to you or your spouse or common-law partner in 2015, you may be able to claim a deduction on line 232. See line 232.
RRSP annuity payments you report on line 129 (shown in box 16 of your T4RSP slips) qualify for the pension income amount if you were 65 years of age or older on December 31, 2015, or if you received the payments on the death of your spouse or common-law partner. See line 314.
You may also be able to make a joint election with your spouse or common-law partner to split your RRSP annuity payments you reported on line 129 if you meet all the following conditions:
- you were 65 years of age or older on December 31, 2015, or you received the payments because of the death of your spouse or common-law partner;
- you were both residents of Canada on December 31, 2015 (or were residents of Canada on the date of death); and
- you and your spouse or common-law partner were not, because of a breakdown in your marriage or common-law relationship, living separate and apart from each other at the end of the year and for a period of 90 days commencing in the year.
To make this election, you and your spouse or common-law partner must complete Form T1032, Joint Election to Split Pension Income.
Note
If you elected to split your RRSP annuity payments with your spouse or common-law partner, you (the pensioner) must still report the full amount on line 129, but you can claim a deduction for the elected split pension amount. See line 210.
RRSPs for spouse or common-law partner
Your spouse or common-law partner may have to report some or all of the RRSP income shown in boxes 20, 22, and 26 of your T4RSP slips if he or she contributed to any of your RRSPs in 2013, 2014, or 2015. In that case, your T4RSP slips should have "Yes" ticked in box 24 and your spouse's or common-law partner's social insurance number shown in box 36.
To calculate the amount from an RRSP for a spouse or common-law partner that each of you has to report, complete Form T2205, Amounts from a Spousal or Common-Law Partner RRSP, RRIF, or SPP to Include in Income. Both you and your spouse or common-law partner should include this form with your paper returns. However, only the person shown as the annuitant (recipient) on the T4RSP slips can claim the income tax deducted (box 30) and should attach the slips to his or her paper return.
Note
If you and your spouse or common-law partner were living apart because of a breakdown in the relationship when you withdrew funds from your RRSP, you have to report the whole amount shown on your T4RSP slips.
For more information, see Guide T4040, RRSPs and Other Registered Plans for Retirement.
Repayments under the Home Buyers' Plan (HBP) and the Lifelong Learning Plan (LLP)
If in previous years you withdrew funds from your RRSP under the HBP or the LLP, you may have to make a repayment for 2015. The minimum repayment is shown on your notice of assessment or notice of reassessment for 2014. To make a repayment, you have to contribute to your RRSP/PRPP from January 1, 2015, to February 29, 2016, and designate your contribution as a repayment on line 6 or 7 of Schedule 7. Do not send your repayment to us.
If you repay less than the minimum amount for 2015, you have to report the difference on line 129 of your return.
Example
Kevin withdrew funds under the HBP in 2010. His minimum required repayment for 2015 was $800. The only RRSP contribution he made from January 1, 2015, to February 29, 2016, was $500 on June 18, 2015. He designated it on line 6 of Schedule 7 as a repayment under the HBP and included $300 in his income on line 129 ($800 minimum required repayment minus $500 repaid and designated).
For more information, including the rules that apply when the person who made the withdrawal dies, turns 71 years of age, or becomes a non-resident, see Guide RC4112, Lifelong Learning Plan (LLP) or go to What is the Home Buyers' Plan?
