Inaccurate calculation may mean increased benefits for some seniors Health and Welfare Canada an­ nounced recently that pensioners who applied for the Guaranteed Income Supplement (GIS), Spouse’s Allowance or Widowed Spouse’s Allowance, and who re­ ported net losses from rental or self-employment income, may be entitled to an increase in their benefits. The Guaranteed Income Supple­ ment (GIS), Spouse’s Allowance and Widowed Spouse’s Allowance are monthly benefits for pensioners on a limited income, and for their spouses or widowed spouses who are between age 60 and 64. To receive these benefits, pensioners must apply every year. This year, an incorrect proce­ dural change resulted in an inac­ curate calculation of income for the relatively few pensioners who re­ ported net losses from rental or self-employment income in the 1989 tax year. Health and Welfare Canada is reviewing its files to locate pen­ sioners who may be affected. In the meantime, those who reported net losses from rental or self-employ­ ment income and who noticed a reduction in their GIS, Spouse’s Allowance or Widowed Spouse’s Allowance in April 1990, could contact the nearest Income Security Programs Office to have their case reviewed. The telephone number is in the government listings of the phone book under “Government of Canada - Health and Welfare Canada’’.
