If you received this amount and you are a beneficiary of the deceased person's estate, report it on line 13000 of your return unless a T3 Trust Income Tax and Information Return is being filed for the estate. For more information, see Guide T4011, Preparing Returns for Deceased Persons.
On what line do I report CPP death benefit?
Where the CPP or QPP death benefit is the only income of the estate and a T3 return is not otherwise required to be filed, the death benefit can be reported directly on line 13000 of the T1 return of the beneficiary.
How do I file CPP death benefit?
If the beneficiary received the death benefit, see line 13000 in the Federal Income Tax and Benefit Guide. If the estate received the death benefit, see the T4013, T3 Trust Guide.
Where is the death benefit reported?
When an Old Age Security ( OAS ) and Canada Pension Plan ( CPP ) beneficiary dies, their benefits must be cancelled. Benefits are payable for the month in which the death occurs; benefits received after that will have to be repaid.
