A friend of mine that owns his own corporation (he's the only employee) and the advice from his accountant is that he should take his CPP at 65. I believe the reason for him to take his CPP at 65 rather than deferring to 70, which is what he planned to do, is that he'll still be receiving income from his corporation (from retained earnings I think) and he would be making both the employer and employee contributions. If he takes his CPP at 65 then he can elect not to make any further CPP contributions. It's a different scenario from us regular working stiffs that are probably best to defer to 70 if we can.

Adam, after watching this video and a few others (including your in-depth video on taking CPP at 60), I am wondering what your recommendation would be in my wife's case. She is a 54 year old nurse and is adamant that she is retiring at 57 (she is already past her magic 80 number). Her nursing degree took 5 years, and if she retires at age 57, that is 8 more years of zero income factoring into the calculations. She also had 3 maternity leaves that were 6 months in duration, which may give her more years to take eliminate from the calculation. So she had very little income from 18-23 and will not contribute to CPP for 8 years from 57 to 65. So in her case, is it better to start CPP at 60 so that the calculated payout is higher than it would be at 65, or does the .6% per month deduction still make the argument for starting to collect at 65 or later?
