  • Working While Collecting a Pension: If you continue to work while receiving your Canadian Pension Plan (CPP) retirement pension and are between the ages of 60 and 65 years old, you must still contribute to the CPP. Your CPP contributions will go toward post-retirement benefits. These benefits will increase your retirement income when you stop working.
  • Disability Tax Credit (DTC): The disability tax credit (DTC) is a non-refundable tax credit that helps people with impairments, or their supporting family member, reduce the amount of income tax they may have to pay.
