Canada Pension Plan and Old Age Security

Almost all of today’s seniors receive income from Canada’s Public Pensions. Basic financial support is also available to survivors and to people who become too disabled to work and their children. These pensions and benefits are delivered through the Old Age Security (OAS) program and the Canada Pension Plan (CPP).

Together, the OAS and CPP provide a modest base upon which Canadians can build their retirement income.

  • Canada Pension Plan (CPP)
    The Canada Pension Plan (CPP) provides contributors and their families with retirement, disability, survivor, death and children’s benefits.
    • The retirement pension is a monthly payment available to CPP contributors as early as 60 years of age.

      • The death benefit – a one-time payment to, or on behalf of, the estate of a deceased Canada Pension Plan contributor;
      • The survivor's pension – a monthly pension paid to the surviving spouse or common-law partner of a deceased contributor; and
      • The children's benefit – a monthly benefit for dependent children of a deceased contributor.
