Description & Services | |
Description of service(s) | Income Security Programs: Social Development Canada (SDC) administers a collection of benefit programs known as Income Security Programs or ISP. The main components of ISP are Old Age Security Pension, Canada Pension and CPP disability benefits. Old Age Security Pension is a monthly benefit available, if applied for, to most Canadians 65 years of age or over. Old Age Security residence requirements must also be met. Guaranteed Income Supplement is a monthly benefit paid to residents of Canada who receive a basic, full or partial Old Age Security pension and who have little or no other income. Guaranteed Income Supplement payments may begin in the same month as Old Age Security pension payments. Recipients must re-apply annually for the Guaranteed Income Supplement benefit by filing an income statement or by completing an income tax return by April 30. Canada Pension Plan is a contributory, earnings-related social insurance program. It ensures a measure of protection to a contributor and his or her family against the loss of income due to retirement, disability and death. There are three kinds of Canada Pension Plan benefits: • Disability benefits (which include benefits for disabled contributors and benefits for their dependent children); • Retirement pension; and • Survivor benefits (which include the death benefit, the survivor's pension and the children's benefit). |
