On January 12, 2026, the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) published the 2025 T4A-RCA slip.
A T4A-RCA slip identifies the amounts distributed during a calendar year to a person from a retirement compensation arrangement (RCA), as a beneficiary of the RCA or if they sold an interest in it. The slip also shows the income tax that was deducted from the amounts distributed to the person.
Payers who administer or make payments from an RCA should:
- Review the newly published 2025 T4A-RCA slip released by the CRA.
- Ensure the 2025 slip is used to report all applicable distributions made from an RCA during the 2025 calendar year.
- Verify that income tax withholdings on RCA distributions are accurately calculated and reported.
