The Department of Social Insurance would like to advise the public that as a result of the temporary office move to Global House in May, there is still a possibility that not all new pension applications were processed in time for the August 15, 2016 payment.
New applicants for benefits who submitted prior to May 31, 2016, and whose 65th birthday was on or prior to that date and who did not receive a payment on August 15, 2016, should contact the Department at 294 9246 to allow for an expedited payment.
Applications submitted after May 31, 2016 would have been received in the Department’s new, temporary location on the ground floor at Global House and should be processed normally within 60 days.
