I had pension income in 2022 which I split with my wife. In 2023, I did not take pension income other than CPP and earned income from employment.  Is there a way to split this earned income or the CPP with my wife?

[Robertbosanti]

Can a person only split pension income?

Can I not pay my wife a wage and deduct that payment from my earned income?

[Robertbosanti]

Your reply says "mostly pension income". That leads me to believe that there is a way to split other income that is not pension income. I checked your links and they don't answer my question.
