Pension split

[Cynelfin]

Using TurboTax Online 2024.  Trying to set up pension splitting.  Doing a coupled return. 

The instructions to check pension splitting in the Help Section do not match those in the program e.g. there isn't a 'Let's see if there's any extra ..' (approx. words) in the program.  I can't find a check box for pension splitting anywhere in Tax Profile

Eligibility to split your pension income with your spouse depends on some key factors, like your province, age, income, and claimed credits and deductions. TurboTax will split your pension income only if the conditions listed here are met.
