How it works: CPP and OAS are taxable income. RRSP/RRIF withdrawals are fully taxable. TFSA withdrawals are tax-free and excluded from your taxable income. The OAS Recovery Tax (clawback) applies at 15 cents per dollar above $95,323 (2026). This calculator uses annual averages — your actual OAS benefit is indexed quarterly by CRA.

Canadian Retirement Income Sources

Canada Pension Plan (CPP): A contributory pension paid monthly based on your work history. The maximum 2026 rate is approximately $1,433/month. You can start as early as age 60 (reduced by 0.6%/month) or delay to age 70 (increased by 0.7%/month). CPP is fully taxable.

Old Age Security (OAS): A universal pension available at 65 regardless of work history. You can defer to age 70 for a 0.6% monthly bonus. OAS is taxable and subject to a 15% Recovery Tax if your net income exceeds the threshold (~$95,000 in 2026).

RRSP/RRIF Withdrawals: After converting your RRSP to a RRIF at age 71, you must make minimum annual withdrawals. All RRIF income is fully taxable. Withholding tax applies at source.

TFSA Withdrawals: Completely tax-free. TFSA income does not affect your OAS threshold, GIS eligibility, or any income-tested benefit. Withdrawn amounts are re-added to your room the following year.
