I took early retirement from CN in 1991. I was offered the "integrated pension" which included an extra $110.00 per month for the ten years until I would be 65. I thought this was an incentive to take retiremnt at 55. However, I was devastated to learn that the day I turned 65,my cn pension was reduced by $443.00 per month (the amount of the OAS monthly payment) for the rest of my life! For the approximatey $12,000 I received over that ten year period from CN,I will repay $53,000 and over $100,000 if I live to be 85! Can anyone advise if I can at least claim any of this money as a tax deduction or get any sort of tax credit? Any comments or advice would be appreciated. Thank you.
