FAQ
The good news is that there is a Social Security Agreement between Canada and the US, which means both of you should be able to receive your Social Security benefits while living in Canada. However, it's important to notify Social Security about your address change to avoid any interruption in your benefits.
If you earned Social Security benefits, you can visit or live in most foreign countries and still receive payments.
If you qualify for Social Security benefits from the United States and a CPP/QPP pension from Canada, and you did not need the agreement to qualify for the U.S. benefit, the amount of your U.S. benefit may be reduced.
Yes you can. Canada Pension Plan benefits are based strictly on the contribution record. Residency or citizenship play no part in the calculation.
If you are a U.S. citizen, you may receive your Social Security payments outside the U.S. as long as you are eligible for them.
As a non-resident of Canada, you may be entitled to apply for Canada Pension Plan (CPP) payments and Old Age Security Pension (OAS) payments. Canada also has agreements with a number of other countries that offer comparable pension programs.
An agreement effective August 1, 1984, between the United States and Canada improves Social Security protection for people who work or have worked in both countries. It also helps protect the benefit rights of people who have earned Canadian Social Security credits based on residence and/or contributions in Canada.
You will still receive your PS pension payments regardless of where you take up residence or travel to. You will also receive your CPP even if you live in or travel to another country.
If you receive Canadian retirement or pension benefits while living in the US, you should report them on form 1040 or a 1040A (depending on which one you're filing).
If you are a resident of the United States, these retirement benefits are treated as US social security payments for tax purposes. The benefits are taxed only in the US—not Canada. Essentially, the IRS ignores the fact that these are Canadian retirement benefits and treats them like regular US social security benefits.
