Previously, you were able to claim a credit on the first $1,000 of eligible pension or annuity income reported on line 115 or line 129 of your return. The maximum amount of eligible pension income that can be used to calculate the credit is increased to $2,000.
My brother gets Canada Pension Plan and Old Age Security. Can he claim the pension income amount for $2,000?
Only certain pension or annuity income you report on line 115 or 129 qualifies for the pension income amount. Old Age Security benefits and Canada Pension Plan benefits do not qualify.
