T2151 Direct Transfer of a Single Amount

To transfer your pension funds to a locked-in RRSP or RRIF (within the terms and conditions set forth by the Registered Pension Plan Document with Group Retirement Services), the CISVA Registered Pension Plan requires completion and return of a CCRA T2151 form.

If you have sought employment outside of the CISVA, please contact your new employer to confirm if their pension plan will accept the transfer of funds from the CISVA Pension Plan.

What is a Form 1?
The Form 1 - Claim of Spouse to Interest in Member's Pension, of the Family Relations Act, is completed by an ex-spouse to inform the Plan that she/he has claim of interest in a member's account. Once the Plan receives this notice, the Plan is under an obligation to:

  • provide the spouse with information about the pension, and

  • give the spouse advance notice before it acts on a direction received from the member in connection with his/her pension

   Form 1 - Claim of Spouse to Interest in Member's Pension

Please note no funds are transferred upon receipt of Form 1.


When can the funds be split?

The following forms must be completed and presented to the Benefit Administration Office (BAO) before any payment will be made:

  • Court Order or Separation Agreement. The order or agreement should direct the Plan member to make payments naming the eligible former spouse and indicating the amount to be paid. The order or agreement must be specific as the BAO is not empowered to make any decisions regarding the details of the order or agreement.

  • Form 3 - Request for Transfer from Unmatured Defined Contribution Plan - of the Family Relations Act. This form is completed by the spouse or former spouse of a member who would like to transfer their pension entitlement to their RRSP or RPP.

   Form 3 - Request for Transfer from Unmatured Defined Contribution Plan

Upon receipt of all the necessary forms from an eligible former spouse the Benefit Administration Office is required to send the Plan member, Form 6 - Notice of Receipt. This form informs the member that our office has received completed forms from the eligible former spouse, and that the Plan will be processing the transfer of funds.
