Enter the information from your RL1 box 211. This will ensure that the amount is treated as "previous employment", rather than "regular employment" income.

Next year, you may want to contact your former employer and ensure they enter in that amount correctly on a Tslip for tax purposes.

Turbotax advice addresses the situation for T4/RL1 but not T4A/RL1 combination.
