There is a statutory provision in both the CPP and the Old Age Security program that these benefits are indexed in accordance with the CPI. This miscalculation would represent an underpayment, corresponding to a one-time lump-sum payment of about $50 and $100 for the Old Age Security and CPP, respectively, for beneficiaries at the maximum level of benefit.
Cette erreur de calcul constituerait un moins-payé, ce qui correspond à un paiement forfaitaire d'environ 50 et 100 $ pour la Sécurité de la vieillesse et le RPC, respectivement, pour les bénéficiaires ayant droit aux prestations maximales.
