The Bopva Letter, every Tuesday

One short letter a week about a single piece of retirement paperwork: what it is, when it comes, and the line worth checking.

Dear reader,

The year of a Canadian retirement has a rhythm, and most of it comes by post. The Bopva Letter follows that rhythm. Each Tuesday it takes one document that is about to land, or has just landed, in Canadian mailboxes, and explains it in a few minutes of reading.

What a typical issue covers

  • In February: the T4A(P) and T4A(OAS) slips, and the boxes that go on the return.
  • In spring: the April 30 filing date and why it matters for the Guaranteed Income Supplement.
  • In July: the GIS renewal letter, and what to do if it does not arrive.
  • Through the year: the OAS enrolment letter, the Statement of Contributions, and the look-alike messages to ignore.

What it is not

It is general information from a sponsored publisher, JBV Consultancy OÜ, not advice about your own benefits, and it never asks for anything except the email address you give below. Every article on the site can be read without subscribing.
