CRA-Auto-fill-my-return showing "Total unclaimed RRSP contributions" from previous years

[FiletoOWN]

Hello,

Can someone explain what this means "Total unclaimed RRSP contributions", which is different from the NOA where it states "Unused RRSP contributions previously reported and available to deduct for 2022" equal to zero.

How would I claim the amounts Total unclaimed RRSP contributions for those previous years using the Ufile for Windows 2022?

Thanks

Hello FiletoOWN,

If you have an unused contribution to your RRSP from the first 60 days of 2021, the reporting method will depend on the actual situation.

 If the amount was reported in 2021 and not used in 2021, therefore carried over to 2022, then it is an unused contribution and the UFile program would have carried it over to 2021.

 IF you have a RRSP from the first 60 days of 2021, and it was never reported before, then you have to make an adjustment to your 2021 tax return or if you successfully NetFiled your 2021 tax return you can ReFILE your 2021 return after you have made the entry into your 2021 return.

-I do not have unused contributions as NOA shows zero as stated in my question.

-there were no contributions made in the first days of 2021, hence, nothing to report.

Ufile is showing ""Total unclaimed RRSP contributions" for previous years (going back to 1999 for my tax returns) after downloading the data from CRA in the section CRA-Autofill-my-return.  It is possible that these amounts were not "claimed" or used for gross income deduction.  That is, RRSP contributions were reported but the full amount were not entirely claimed for those years.  Hence, a balance remained.  How do I go back to claim them?

Thanks for replying.

Hope you can help further.
