Pension question, Canada
How do I get my CPP Statement of Contributions from abroad?
My Service Canada Account (MSCA), CPP and OAS: Check CPP and OAS entitlements via My Service Canada Account. My Service Canada Account's published sign-in and identity routes rest on Canadian credentials or a code posted by Service Canada, which a person who left Canada decades ago may not have.

Why does the Statement of Contributions matter?
Your Statement of Contributions carries Service Canada's own estimate, the only figure worth quoting for your record.

Do you give advice on what to do?
No. We identify where a pension is likely held and the official route to it, and we name each source with the date we read it. We do not give financial, tax or legal advice.
