Has anybody applied for old age pension for their parents who have immigrated from India (or any other country)?
Anything specific to be kept in mind while filling out the forms?
Hello
There are several pension plans for old people. Those who are sponsored by their children, have ten year restriction on them. Which means they are not eligible to get any pension until they complete ten years in canada and contribute enough towards CPP to get OA Pension. However, there are some exceptions to this rule.
Canada has agreement with many countries especially America, Eurpean and east eurpean countries; people who served in these countries who are now living in canada, their service time in other country is taken in to account while processing application for pensions.
Old people(+60) or Disabled people (Less than 60 Years) are eligible to get pension from federal Government.
Provincial government also provide income support to financially broken or people with physical or mental impairements.
For more information call me at 1 647-896-7853
sincerely,

I think for OAS you have to live in Canada for like 10 years??

Seniors are eligible for OAS payments at 65 years of age, subject only to gross income constraints (i.e. clawbacks).
CPP depends purely on contributions. No contributions = No CPP
At least that's my understanding. Can you clarify your statement?
