Retiring Abroad | What Happens to CPP, OAS & GIS?

Very interesting and informative. My wife is Colombian and we are looking to retire to Colombia when the time comes.

Great job Rhys!

That is some great info. What do you think about segregated funds being part of retirement planning? Many advisors are recommending these to take care of taxes. Thanks.

I was thinking of moving too Hawaii when I turn 65 . I have been collecting my CPP since I turned 60 and I’m still working when I turn 65 I get a company pension I will be at my 40 years of at the company so would I still get OAS with my company pension . I only make 48,000 for the year .

Hi love your video series. Have 1 question im retiring abroad to a non tax treaty country, all the withholding tax for CPP OAS AND RRSP, do i get most of it back when i file my income tax return. Also if i fill out form 217 and NR5 do i get most of the withholding tax back

How about if I live 6 months in Canada and 6 months abroad… Can I still get GIS ?

I cannot wait to LEAVE Canada permenatly!

This is amazingly clear and succinct! I've never heard CPP/OAS/GIS explained so clearly. Thank you!!

Hello Sir
Thank you for your these wonderful informative videos. I follow all of them. You are one the best.❤
Quick question: how long we can stay outside of Canada after we receive our retirement benefits? What will happen if we stay more than 6 months?
Please advise.🙏

Very useful info. Thank-you

Thanks for uploading. Really appreciate the info provided and how well you present it. Cheers

thank you for this content

Hello there,
Another very interesting video....
I was wondering if you can suggest someone that could help with cross border taxes? David is my name and I intend to retire in Portugal, so that person should be someone that be familiarized with Canada/Portugal retirements....
Thanks in advance

I am almost 55 and will be switching careers to be able to work from home/work longer! I will be spending part of the year in the US with my partner and part of the year here in Canada. I wonder how my pension will work doing this?

Wow! I have watched countless videos on this very topic, and yet you have included a few very interesting facts that I had never come across. Thank you and well done.

Yeah.... You're back! Enjoy your videos and thanks for creating them.

What is very important when you leave Canada, make sure you apply for OAS before you leave. My wife and I left and it took 4 years to get her OAS. The government drags its feet wants you to fill out 21 pages of reasons why you left and will not communicate with you. They even ask the country (my wife) where she is from and contract Germany to ask permission to give this OAS to us. Yea, get your pension before you leave.
