$2,500 OAS Payment Coming in April 2025 – Find Out the Date & Eligibility

On: Tuesday, April 22, 2025 12:06 AM

The old age payment of $2500 is the most viewed and popular searched topic in Canada. Since OAS monthly benefits are revised by the CRA every quarter. By April 2025 the review of old age payments will be due, and the revised amount for the OAS is expected to be $2500 per month.

However, since the CPI has remained unchanged, the recent revision report by Service Canada for OAS amounts for the second quarter of 2025 does not show any variation. In other words, the old age security benefit for the second quarter will not be modified. Hence, this anticipation of $2500 OAS payments seems highly unlikely.

This is a presuming payment. Seniors will be eligible to collect $2500 in April, 2025; however, there will be no adjustment to April, 2025 payments. Payments for the old age security in the first quarter will apply for the months of April, May, and June, 2025. Therefore, OAS Claimants between the ages of 65 years to 74 years can claim for a monthly benefit of $727.67, while OAS Claimants at age 75 years and older could claim a monthly benefit of $800.44.

A combined $2500 of Old Age Payments can be claimed, but for this the senior must also qualify for and claim any other secondary benefits such as allowance payment, GIS payment, or survivors’ allowance payment. However, that $2500 as a regular old age security benefit is unlikely to happen.
