GIS (Guaranteed Income Supplement) is a pension program in Canada that provides additional income support to low-income seniors who already receive Old Age Security (OAS) and the Canada Pension Plan (CPP) or Quebec Pension Plan (QPP). It is specifically designed to assist those who have little or no income other than their OAS and CPP/QPP pensions. This program is targeted towards those with limited income and assets, including those who may have had disruptions in their career and earning opportunities.
