Form T2220 is essential for transferring funds from a Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP), Registered Retirement Income Fund (RRIF), Pension Plan (PRPP), or Savings Plan (SPP) to the corresponding plan of your current or former spouse or common-law partner.

It ensures that the transferred funds are accurately recorded and taxed, simplifying the financial adjustments that come with separation.

Form T2220 is essential for specific financial transfers. Here’s what it’s used for:

• Transfers due to a breakup: Moving funds because of a marriage or common-law partnership breakdown.
• Ownership changes: Adjusting the ownership of funds or assets to the account owner.
• Required signatures: Both the annuitant and their spouse or partner must sign.
• Legal documents: Accepting a decree, order, or separation agreement if one party’s signature is missing.

Form T2220 is completed by individuals experiencing a breakdown of marriage or common-law partnership, intending to transfer retirement funds due to legal requirements. This form is necessary for couples who must divide their RRSPs, RRIFs, PRPPs, or SPPs as part of their separation process.

Form T2220 is not required when the transfer of funds is not due to a breakdown of marriage or common-law partnership.
