This is a taxable payment received by an individual from certain United States Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) that is not part of a series of periodic payments. This payment came from contributions made by the individual or by the individual’s spouse/common-law partner (or former spouse or common-law partner) to the IRA. The amount that can be transferred is limited to the part of the payment that would have been taxable if the individual had been resident in the U.S. Generally, these lump-sum payments are transferred indirectly to the individual’s RRSP.
