The amount you designate for transfer to an RRSP/PRPP cannot be greater than the eligible income reported for transfer.

Do you have qualifying income reported on any of a T4, T4A, T4RIF, T4RSP (etc) that can be transferred?

[user123365603]

All I have entered is my income from employment from my t4. No other income.

[TurboTaxTerry]

Then you would not be transferring any amount for RRSP purposes. Are you making a new contribution to your RRSP?

[TurboTaxAllen]

Please clarify the nature of the payment you are considering to designate as a transfer.  The CRA has the Guide T4040 RRSPs and Other Registered Plans for Retirement: http://www.cra-arc.gc.ca/E/pub/tg/t4040/t4040-e.html#P2464_83200  Where charts 8 & 9 discuss amounts that can be transferred either indirectly or directly.

[TurboTaxTerry]

Have you transferred any funds to your registered plan? How is this being reported to you?

[user123365603]

OK.  All I did was fill out my T4 income into the T4 field.  Then I filled out my RRSP contribution from the RRSP tax receipts. It was only a $400 contribution. That's it.

[user123365603]

I'm not trying to transfer anything.

[TurboTaxTerry]

Under the "RRSP" tab > then "RRSP Profile" make sure to uncheck the box that says "Transfers to RRSP".

[TurboTaxTerry]

If that box is not checked you should not see the "Transfer" area in Turbo Tax. Where are you seeing this message?
