Version : v1.0.0

Date : June 27, 2023

Project Overview:

The OAS Eligibility Estimator is a web application tool available to the public. The tool can provide estimates for an individual’s eligibility and entitlement for benefits in the OAS program.

(This product is also known as: OAS Benefit Estimator, Eligibility Estimator, EE, and Eligibility Calculator).

Key Features:

The web application will take a client's answers to around six questions and determine if they are eligible for any of the four covered benefits:

Old Age Security
Guaranteed Income Supplement
Allowance
Allowance for the Survivor

If the client is eligible, the tool will also determine the monthly amounts they are entitled to. This logic has been determined using publicly available data, in conjunction with internal discussions with policy experts to verify our logic for edge cases.

The intent is that all values provided by the tool are completely accurate. However, certain edge cases are deliberately not handled due to complexity, which results in no estimation results available. As far as we are aware, all provided estimates are fully accurate, however as the government changes limits and policies, the application estimates may become inaccurate. Therefore, we emphasize that any data returned by this tool is not final and is subject to inaccuracy.
