๐ GREAT NEWS for Canadian Seniors Starting August โ 3 Money Surprises You Need to Know About [fFiIrUPMBmw]
On Thursday, August 27, Canadian seniors receive the largest Old Age Security deposit this country has ever paid out โ and two more pieces of money land in August that most people never see at all. One is a permanent raise that arrives automatically on a birthday. The other is worth up to $500, comes from a different department entirely, and is missed because of one box on a tax form nobody explains. What lands, and when: โ August 27 โ OAS, CPP and GIS arrive in one deposit at the new rate: $751.97 (age 65โ74) and $827.17 (age 75+), after the 1.2% July increase โ A single senior on maximum OAS plus maximum GIS now receives $1,875.14 a month โ August 10 โ the Ontario Trillium Benefit; the Senior Homeowners' Property Tax Grant (up to $500) is NOT part of it, and is claimed separately on Form ON-BEN โ Nothing comes from the Canada Groceries and Essentials Benefit in August โ it's quarterly: paid July 3, next October 5 โ โ ๏ธ The OAS recovery tax just reset: 2025 income over $93,454 is clawed back at 15ยข on the dollar, shaved off each deposit in advance โ no letter, just a smaller number โ Turn 75 and your OAS rises 10% for life โ but it starts the month AFTER your birthday, which is why thousands assume they were skipped If you collect OAS or GIS, are turning 75 this year, or own your home โ or you love someone who does โ this one is worth your time. Which of the three had you never heard of? ๐ The Canadian Seniors' Money Playbook โ every threshold, every form, and the exact words to use when you phone Service Canada, in plain English: Jake Morrison is not a financial advisor, not from the government, and not selling you a benefit.
