As a result, a prorated Basic Personal Amount of $19,145 was applied to pension payments for the remainder of 2023 and many pensioners' and beneficiaries net deposits were higher due to the reduction to provincial income tax beginning with their July 2023 deposits. As the Government of Manitoba further increased the Basic Personal Amount to $15,705 on January 1, 2024, some pensioners' and beneficiaries net deposits might decrease in 2024 compared to their deposits at the end of 2023.
