GIS amount is revised annually based on your previous year’s income tax declaration amount. Only the OAS portion will continue to be adjusted higher based on inflation.

May 22, 2023 2:22 pmdo i need to reply for the GIS if my income was to high last couple of years but no longer is. It was clawed back due to CERB 2 years ago I believe. and as a result, I no longer receive it. My 2022 income is well below the cut off threshhold
PensionExpert
May 22, 2023 2:27 pmHello Paul,
GIS is an income tested program where it is re-evaluated for eligibility every year. If your 2022 income has gone down under the threshold, it it very likely that you will be qualified for GIS in the next period (July 2023 to June 2024). Please call pension call centre to ensure that your new income has been successfully captured by the pension processing office, or else, you will not see the new GIS payment.

July 28, 2023 9:55 amI have a Question:
This time I received $302.42 more for my OAS. That is a huge difference. Was there an increase or did I receive some GIC. How do I find out and/or who to call to confirm. I do not want to have to refund at a later stage as it may be difficult to do if already spent, given the inflation, etc.
Thank you
