The Canadian Guaranteed Income Supplement can provide over $14,000 per year of tax free retirement income in addition to other government retirement benefits like Old Age Security (OAS) and Canadian Pension Plan income (CPP). Yet many Canadians don’t realize they’re eligible.

In this video, we talk to Owen Winkelmolen who takes us through the eligibility requirements, clawbacks and tax considerations involved in planning for GIS. Owen is a Certified Financial Planner and founder of PlanEasy. He only provides financial planning services for Canadians which limits the conflicts that can arise from also selling investment funds or insurance.

Owen has written extensively about GIS.
