Following confirmation from the Treasury Board regarding the pensionability of the CX allowance, we have finally received a response specifying the implementation date for this measure.
Here is the official response we received:
Hello […],
Thank you for your patience and that of your team.
As communicated in my last correspondence, here is more information regarding the timelines and upcoming recovery.
Work is continuing on reprogramming allowances following the change in pension eligibility. The pay center plans to have reprogramming completed by May 2026. Once reprogramming is implemented, the old allowance will cease and the new allowance will be retroactively initiated. This will create an overpayment requiring recovery. At this time, we do not have the exact amount per pay period that will need to be recovered. The precise amount will be calculated when the new allowance is implemented.
When I follow up on this issue next, I hope to be able to provide you with more details regarding the recovery.
Have a good day.
Daniel Asselin
Rest assured that we will continue our efforts and maintain pressure on the Treasury Board to ensure that deadlines and agreements are respected.
