How to split both spouses pensions (OMERS/RIFF) when TurboTax program only permits the splitting of one spouses pension?

Only one joint election to split pension can be made for a tax year. If both spouses/common-law partners have eligible pension income, they will have to decide who will act as the transferring spouse/common-law partner and who will be the receiving spouse/common-law partner.
