tax return
From a section in a tax return headed "Revenus différés":
"- Montant des salaires imposés selon le système du quotient
- Nombre d'années de rappel
- Montant des pensions imposées selon le système du quotient
- Nombre d'années de rappel."
I assume that it refers to the number of years during which the income has been deferred. But I'm not sure of the right expression in English -- "carry-forward years"? "carry-back years"? something else entirely?
Any informed advice much appreciated.
TIA.

Selected
look-back period in years
The system 'du quotient' is backward-looking; the system 'd'étalement' is forward-looking.

: It's not about 'reimbursement', it's about deferring income for tax purposes!

It looks like "rappel" means the number of year you benefited from deductions that are now somehow partly cancelled... As such, it wouldn't be "carry-back", nor "carry-forward". Sounds more like "reversal" or something like that.
