Dear Sirs:
This is in reply to your letter of January 26, 1990 in which you raised a number of questions concerning transfers to a spousal RRSP under proposed legislation.
Proposed 60(j.2) of the Income Tax Act ("Act") does not contemplate the transfer of RRIF payments or annuity payments to an RRSP under which the taxpayer's spouse is the annuitant.
It would be preferred if you reported the regular spousal contribution and a transfer to a spousal RRSP under proposed paragraph 60(j.2) of the Act separately on one or more contribution receipts, however, this is not mandatory.
We trust that this information is sufficient for your purposes.
Yours truly,
for DirectorFinancial Industries DivisionRulings Directorate
