Do QPP contributions stop at age 70? The rules around working retirees

As of January 1, 2024, the mandatory age to stop contributing to the Québec Pension Plan (QPP) is not 70, but rather the January 1 following your 72nd birthday. However, there is a crucial voluntary option that allows working retirees to cease QPP contributions at an earlier age, which depends on receiving a QPP or CPP retirement pension. This rule change adds a layer of complexity for those planning their retirement income.
