OBS

guaranteed-income supplement program: Old age security payments are made to all individuals over sixty-five years of age. In 1967 this program was supplemented with a program of additional payments to low-income pensioners, graduated according to income. The maximum payment under this guaranteed-income supplement program is $70 per month for a single person and $125 for married couples.
