If you receive Old Age Security, you will get an extra $300 the week of July 6th and if you qualify for the Guaranteed Income Supplement, you can expect an additional $200.

 

This measure will give a total of $500 to individuals who are eligible to receive both the OAS and the GIS, and will help cover increased costs caused by COVID-19.

 

These one-time payments are automatic- you do not need to apply.
