Recent 3b in Need of Financial Guidance

Jayse29,

When I was medically released in 2005, SISIP suggested that I apply for Unemployment Insurance and collect EI until SISIP kicked it!
This is how I was able to pay for rent.
Cheers,

That might be your final CF paycheque, to cover from the 15th to 22nd of July? it won't be your CF pension yet, which you will get, in spite of your age. You will get an immediate annuity (CF pension) because you served more than 10 years before being medically released, but it can take a couple of months to kick in.

Hello,

My 3b release date from the CF was July 22, 2018 (Officially July 11th + remaining annual). I joined July 10th, 2002
As planned, I saved up some money while I await for SISIP Manulife and the remainder from VAC (which I hear can be a while.)

On July 15th, I received a deposit from "Canada Pay" in the amount of $667.20. Can anyone tell me what this came from (Someone told me pension but I am 36).

Is it a one time thing? If not, how often should I expect to see it?

As far as sisip goes, (with my release being within the 4-6 week timeline) do they only pay on certain dates of the month?


The reason I ask is because the funds are low and if that $667.20 is a bi-monthly thing, it will save my ass for paying rent, bills and child support for the month.
