About this service
The Old Age Security (OAS) program is the Government of Canada's largest pension program. It is funded out of the general tax revenues of the Government of Canada. This means that you do not pay into it directly.
The OAS pension is a monthly payment available to seniors aged 65 and older who meet the Canadian legal status and residence requirements. You may need to apply to receive it.
In addition to the OAS pension, there are three types of OAS benefits:
- Guaranteed Income Supplement: If you live in Canada and you have a low income, this monthly non-taxable benefit can be added to your OAS pension.
- Allowance : If you are 60 to 64 years of age and your spouse or common-law partner is receiving the OAS pension and is eligible for the Guaranteed Income Supplement (GIS), you might be eligible to receive this benefit.
- Allowance for the Survivor : If you are 60 to 64 years of age and you are widowed, you might be eligible to receive this benefit.
