About this service
Old Age Security Pension is a monthly payment that helps with daily expenses. It is available to most Canadians aged 65 and older. OAS is based on age and years of residence in Canada. It is a taxable income. This means taxes are deducted from each cheque or paid at the end of a tax year.
You may receive notification via mail of automatic enrolment in Old Age Security. If you are not automatically enrolled you must apply to Service Canada for this benefit. Additionally, eligible persons can defer Old Age Security for up to 60 months. Deferral guarantees higher monthly payments for when you receive Old Age Security. Some seniors defer this pension to reduce their taxes owed as they work beyond the age of 65.
