whether it&#8217;s debt, budgeting, or taxes. As a senior citizen, you have more financial challenges to consider as you approach retirement. Some financial challenges for seniors include paying off debt, reverse mortgages, confusing bank fees, identity theft, healthcare costs, living with lower income and more. <a href=\"blank\">Debt is particularly stressful for seniors<\/a>. That&#8217;s because it&#8217;s more difficult to pay off debt with reduced income. Also, not every senior is fortunate enough to benefit from an employer pension plan.<\/p><p>Luckily, the federal government has specific <a href=\"blank\">sources of retirement income<\/a> for Canadian seniors. Specifically, seniors can access the <a href=\"blank#toc1\">Canada Pension Plan (CPP)<\/a> and <a href=\"blank#toc2\">Old Age Security (OAS)<\/a>. In this guide, My Rate Compass provides an overview of the OAS program.<\/p><h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"i\"><\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2><h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_the_Old_Age_Security_OAS_Pension\"><\/span>What is the Old Age Security (OAS) Pension?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2><div>\u00a0<\/div><p>The Old Age Security (OAS) Pension is a monthly payment for Canadian senior citizens. You don&#8217;t need to contribute to OAS to receive it. Whether you&#8217;ve worked your whole life or not doesn&#8217;t matter, as you&#8217;ll still be eligible to receive OAS at the age of 65.<\/p><p>Usually, you don&#8217;t need to apply for OAS &#8212; the government automatically enrolls you into it. A month after your 64th birthday, you&#8217;ll receive a letter informing you of your enrollment. You can also defer your OAS payments for a maximum of 5 years. Deferring OAS means your payments will be higher once you start receiving funds.<\/p><h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"i-2\"><\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2><h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Who_is_Eligible_for_the_Old_Age_Security_OAS_Pension\"><\/span>Who is Eligible for the Old Age Security (OAS) Pension?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2><div>\u00a0<\/div><p>OAS applicants must meet the following eligibility criteria:<\/p><ol><li>You must be a Canadian citizen or legal resident of Canada that has lived in Canada for at least 10 years.<\/li><\/ol><ul><li>\u00a0 If you live outside of Canada, you must have lived inside of Canada for at least 20 years as an adult.<\/li><\/ul><ol><li>You must be at least 65 years old.<\/li><\/ol><p>If you&#8217;re a Canadian who works abroad, the criteria are slightly different.

If you&#8217;ve lived in Canada for at least 40 years, you&#8217;ll be eligible for the maximum amount of OAS.<\/p><p>The OAS amounts are adjusted every quarter: once in January, April, July, and October. The government adjusts OAS amounts to account for changes in living costs and inflation. The maximum amount of OAS for July to September 2022 is a monthly payment of $642.25, as long as your annual income is under $129,581.<\/p><p>Furthermore, the total amount received also depends on your income.

In other words, you won&#8217;t be eligible for the OAS benefit.<\/p><p>In 2021, you must pay back 15% of your OAS benefit if your annual income surpasses $79,845 but is under $129,581. OAS claw backs can be confusing to understand, let&#8217;s look at an example.<\/p><h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Example\"><\/span>Example:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3><div>\u00a0<\/div><p>Scenario: Your income was $90,000 in 2021 and the income threshold for the OAS claw back is $79,845. The difference is $10,155 ($90,000 &#8211; $79,845).<\/p><p>Claw back calculation: You would have to return 15% of the $10,155 difference. Your claw back amount would be $1,523.25 ($10,155 x 15%).<\/p><p>To prevent having to return money to the government through an OAS claw back, keep your income below $79,845. Normally, seniors withdraw funds from a RRIF or <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link \" title=\"RRSP\" href=\"https:\/\/myratecompass.ca\/savings-accounts\/rrsp\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\">RRSP<\/a> to support their lifestyle. For this reason, it&#8217;s usually easy to control your annual income as a retiree.<\/p><h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"i-5\"><\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2><h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Limit_the_OAS_Claw_Back\"><\/span>How to Limit the OAS Claw Back<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2><div>\u00a0<\/div><p>Try these strategies to limit the OAS claw back:<\/p><ol><li><strong>Defer Your OAS Benefit and <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link \" title=\"CPP\" href=\"https:\/\/myratecompass.ca\/blog\/personal-finance\/cpp-payment-dates\/\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\">CPP<\/a>:<\/strong> You can defer your OAS and CPP for up to 5 years.
