Hello hank you in advance for helping me,

My friend is a Canadian citizen and he is retired taxi driver, he came to Canada in his 20s and left at his 40-50
He left to Italy and now some people told us that he is eligible for CPP(Canadian pension plan) he never applied for one. So my question is can he ?? Is he eligible ??

It sounds like 'your friend' might be eligible since he lived in Canada for 20 years and paid taxes.
CPP (Canada Pension Plan) depends on how much money he put into the plan while in Canada.
OAS (Old Age Security) depends on how many years he had lived in Canada since his 18th birthday.
Good luck in application process (if you still expect the answer here)
