Employer RPP reporting on T4 Slip

Hi All,

I was reviewing my T4 slip and noticed something was off with my pension amounts. My company pays into a Manulife RPP plan.

On the 2021 T4 slip, in box 20 (RPP Contributions) = $2,120
On my 2021 Manulife RPP statement, it says I contributed $2,043

On the 2021 T4 slip, in box 52 (Pension adjustment) = $5,657
On my 2021 Manulife RPP statement, it says the total contribution is $5,448 (this excludes growth $$ of the account)

Is it normal to have small differences between what manulife reports and what the company reports on the T4 slip? Or does this include RPP contributions in Jan+Feb of the current year?

does it matter?
To be honest Op I would go by T slips and forget what statement says. CRA has all T slips and they will check your returns against that data. Slip will always include data for last financial year, right? Jan and Feb you worry next year right?

Your T4 should only have what was contributed in 2021. I would double check the date of the statement....
