By now you have received your application form and informa- tion booklet. Be sure to read the booklet carefully. If you qualify, apply early for your supplement. It will take some time to deal with the large number of applications. The sooner you apply the sooner you will have your first payment. Payments will be combined with your Old Age Security pension cheque. If you were entitled to a supplement as of January 1967, your first cheque to include the supplement will cover payment for each month back to January. The new guaranteed income supplement is a monthly payment of $30 which will be added to your $75 Old Age Security pension if you have no other income. If you do have other income, but it is less than $720 a year ($60 a month), you still qualify for a supplement but on a reduced scale.
