    The new benefit amounts for the Canada Pension Plan (CPP) and Old Age Security (OAS) have been announced.
    According to Employment and Social Development Canada, effective January 1st, 2016, CPP benefits will increase by 1.2 per cent for those already receiving them. For 2016, the maximum CPP retirement benefit for new recipients age 65 and older will be $1,092.50 per month, an increase of $330 for the year compared to the 2015 maximum CPP retirement benefit.

    Better to be a refugee in this country than a retired senior citizen, who has worked all his life. Well atleast healthcare is free or whatever is left of it.

    Your first sentence is a very ignorant and misinformed statement. Pick a source below; you can google for more.

    The federal government is rolling out the direct deposit enrollment forms to OAS/CPP recipients. Mom's already on DD for those two but there's a third box on the form for CRA. I've asked her to call the tollfree number to find out if she needs to remit the form.
