You are an intermediate or family-type resource

  • The Québec Pension Plan is a compulsory public insurance plan for workers aged 18 and over, whose annual employment income exceeds $3500. The Plan is funded by your contributions.
  • If you made enough contributions to the plan, we can provide you and your family with different pensions and benefits.
  • Your net remuneration as an intermediate or family-type resource is considered as income.
  • The months during which you received a disability pension, Family Allowance, Canada child tax credits or were entitled to an unreduced income replacement indemnity from the Commission des normes, de l'équité, de la santé et de la sécurité du travail (CNESST) for at least 24 consecutive months are excluded from the contributory period.
  • Consult your Statement of Participation under the Québec Pension Plan to find out the amount of the employment earnings recorded under your name as well as other relevant information.
  • You stop contributing to the Plan when you retire and are no longer economically active.
  • If you are receiving a disability pension, you are no longer contributing to the Plan.
  • In order for an intermediate or family-type resource to remain entitled to disability benefits in 2024, the total of its net annual remuneration (after deducting expenses for an assistant or replacement) and any other employment earnings must not reach $20 746.

    If you believe that your employment earnings could exceed the authorized annual amount, please

    contact us. We will then be able to verify whether you have regular and gainful work within the meaning of the Act. That way, you can avoid having to repay amounts to which you are not entitled.
