The GIS Secret Service Canada Won't Tell You ($1,000+ a Month for Seniors)

Описание: The benefits you paid into are yours — but Service Canada won't come find you. Hundreds of thousands of low-income Canadian seniors qualify for the Guaranteed Income Supplement (GIS) and never claim a dollar of it.

In this video I break down 5 things about the GIS the government will never sit you down and explain: what the GIS actually is and how it stacks on top of your Old Age Security (OAS), how much it's really worth (well over $1,000 a month tax-free for some single seniors — more than $12,000 a year), whether you actually qualify (more people do than think they do, and your OAS doesn't count against you), the one tax-filing mistake that quietly cancels your GIS every single year, and the big one — number five — the reason a senior can qualify perfectly and still receive nothing, because the GIS does not always come find you. You have to apply, and back payments only reach back about 11 months, so every month you wait is money gone.

If you're 60 or older — or you're helping a parent, a neighbour, or someone you love who is — this one matters. Do one thing today: call Service Canada or go to canada.ca and ask, "Am I receiving the Guaranteed Income Supplement, and if not, do I qualify?" One question. It costs nothing and could be worth more than $10,000 a year. And if you already get it, file your taxes every single year, on time, no matter how small your income — that's how you keep it.
