RRSP Contribution Section: It asks: "Is this RRSP contribution for your spouse or common-law partner?" *Well it is a spousal RRSP contribution.

A Spousal RRSP Contribution is reported on the tax return of the person who purchased it, known as the "contributor". The contributor receives the tax deduction at the time of purchase and the "annuitant's" tax return is only affected when the RRSP is withdrawn.
