Oh. That's a bummer.

Generally it is possible. There are various rules. Your provider may be able to assist.

Pension contribution limit from previous years when I had no pension account at all

If I have not had a pension account at all anywhere so far, can I still use the pension contribution limit from previous years this year for an account I open now?
