Form T1198 should be attached to the taxpayer's return for the year of payment in order to require a special tax calculation if the amount shown under "Total principal (prior years only)" is $3,000 or more. Note that if a T1198 is submitted, it will cause efile ineligibility.

Note: The qualifying retroactive lump-sum payment (QRLSP) indicated on this form has to be reported on the recipient's information slip (such as a T4, T4A, T4E).

A QRLSP is a lump-sum payment paid to an individual (other than a trust) in a year that relates to one or more prior eligible taxation years throughout which the individual was a resident of Canada. To be a qualifying amount, the payment must have been paid after 1994 from one of the following sources:

  • income from an office or employment received under:
    • a judgment from a court or other competent tribunal;
    • an arbitration award; or
    • a lawsuit settlement agreement (including damages for loss of office or employment);
  • benefits from Unemployment Insurance or Employment Insurance;
  • benefits from a superannuation or pension plan (other than non-periodic benefits such as lump-sum withdrawals);
  • spousal, common-law partner, or taxable child support payments; or
  • benefits from a wage-loss replacement plan.
