If you worked elsewhere in Canada

You probably contributed to the Canada Pension Plan. The Régie will take into account contributions made to both plans in determining entitlement to benefits and in calculating the amounts to be paid.

Where must you apply for your retirement pension?  

• If you live in Québec, you must apply for your pension from the Régie.
• If you live in another province, you should contact a Department of Human Resources and Skills Development  office. You may also contact this agency by phone at 1 800 277-9914. Service for the hearing impaired: 1 800 603-3540.
• If you are living outside Canada, you retain all of the rights you accumulated under both plans and you can apply to a receive a pension from the plan of your last province of residence in Canada.  

Pensions from some countries may be reduced if you are receiving a pension from Québec.
