We look at three factors to determine if you can receive the Old Age Security pension: your age, your legal status, and the number of years you have lived in Canada.
If one of the two scenarios listed below describes your situation, you may be eligible to receive the Old Age Security pension.
Scenario 1 - People living in Canada
•You must be 65 years of age or older.
•You must live in Canada and be a Canadian citizen or a legal resident at the time we approve your pension application.
•You must have lived in Canada for at least 10 years after turning 18.
Scenario 2 - People living outside Canada
•You must be 65 years of age or older.
•You must have been a Canadian citizen or a legal resident of Canada the day before you left Canada.
•You must have lived in Canada for at least 20 years after turning 18.
If you are not covered by either of these two scenarios, you may still qualify for a pension since Canada has social security agreements with many countries. If you have lived in one of these countries or contributed to its social security system, you may qualify for a pension from that country, from Canada or from both countries. For more information, contact us or see International Benefits.
Beneficiaries incarcerated as a result of a sentence of two years or longer in federal penitentiaries or a sentence of 90 days or longer in provincial or territorial correctional facilities may not receive OAS benefits while incarcerated.
