Avoid delays with direct deposit
Did you know your cheque could be delayed in the event of a flood, a labour disruption or even a snowstorm? If getting your money on time is important to you, enrol in direct deposit for your Government of Canada payments. Your payments will be deposited on time in your bank account. To enrol, call the Pension Centre at 1-855-502-7090 or send them a written request with a void cheque:

Benefits of direct deposit
Fast and convenient: Your money is quickly deposited into your account and immediately available to you.
Secure: Unlike cheques, there is virtually no risk of your payment being lost, stolen or damaged.
Reliable and on time: As soon as the payment is issued, it is deposited into the account of your choice and may immediately begin to earn interest.
