Do I enter my spouse's RRSP portion at the box named "Contribution amount to my spouses RRSPs"? If so, I am confused why my spouse's amount goes towards my RRSP room.

Regarding the RRSP contribution section -  I have an RRSP plan through work that contributes money to my RRSP and to my spouse's. I am confused about there to list my spouse's contribution because when I put it in"Contribution amount to my spouses RRSPs", it still counts towards MY RRSP contributions for 2015.

It is always counted against the contributor, not the annuitant, on a spousal contribution.
