Many persons residing in Canada receive old age pensions from Germany. These payments are not made by the German missions, but by different German pension authorities. In general, banks carry out the payments for the pension authority.
Should you require information on your old age pension, please contact the German pension authority directly or a pension consultant (see right side).
The insurance agency "Deutsche Rentenversicherung Nord" of the German statutory pension insurance scheme serves as liaison office for insured persons who have completed insurance periods in Canada or who live there. |
