OLD AGE SECURITY PENSION
The new guaranteed income supplement is a monthly payment
of $30 which will be added to the present $75 Old Age
Security Pension if the pensioner has no other income. ,
However, if the pensioner has other income but it is less than
$720 a year ($60 a month) the pensioner still qualifies for a
supplement but on a reduced scale depending on his other
income. ..,
Every Old Age Security Pensioner is thus guaranteed a mini
mum income of $105 a month.
Married Pensioners:
If both husband and wife receive the Old Age Security Pension, and have no other income, both
qualify for the $30 a month supplement, assuring them a minimum of $210 a month. If married
pensioners have a combined income of less than $1440 a year, not including their Old Age
Security pensions, each may qualify for a supplement at a reduced rate.
Application Forms:
An application form and a booklet containing details of the guaranteed income supplement will be
mailed to all Old Age Security pensioners during February. They will be asked to read the booklet
carefully and fill in the application form at once. Married pensioners are asked that each fill in an
application form and mail the two in the same envelope. Income does not include war service
pensions, gifts from relatives and money from a number of other sources. A list of
items not considered as income is shown on the application form and in the informa
tion booklet. Pensioners may receive help in preparing applications by contacting the Old Age
Security, Canada Pension Plan or Income Tax offices. Addresses are available in the booklet.
Payment Dates:
At least two months are required to deal with applications. Some pensioners will receive their
supplementary payments combined with their Old Age Security pension cheques in March. Others
will receive their combined payments in April. Pensioners entitled to a supplement as of Januaty
1967 will have their payments bacK-dated to January.
