A transfer of your registered pension plan (RPP) contributions to your RRSP could result in an increase to your current-year RRSP deduction limit. A pension adjustment reversal (PAR) restores the reduction of your RRSP deduction limit, in certain circumstances, if you earn benefits under a registered pension plan (RPP) or a deferred profit sharing plan (DPSP) and then lose your entitlement to the benefits because you leave the plan before you retire.

Your plan administrator or trustee will report a PAR for you, if the amount you receive from the plan is less than the total pension adjustments (PAs) and past service pension adjustments (PSPAs) that were previously reported for you.

We will recalculate your RRSP deduction limit based on the information your former employer gives us, and we will send you a notice of reassessment or a T1028, Your RRSP Information for 2011, that shows the revised RRSP deduction limit.
