Is anyone else having trouble with the dental coverage being rolled in? Mine is still only showing the drug and health benefits for dependents (and weirdly my birthday in the profile is actually my wife's).
GOing to submit a claim anyway, but jumped through their hoops already to add it on and still nothing almost a year later.
Apparently the date for the change-over has been amended.
New Pensioners’ Dental Services Plan transition date — Nov. 1, 2024
The federal government has extended the Pensioners’ Dental Service Plan transition date to Nov. 1, 2024.

In June 2023, the government announced the contract for the Pensioners’ Dental Service Plan (PDSP) and the Public Service Dental Care Plan (PSDCP) was awarded to Canada Life. At the time of the announcement, the PDSP transition date was July 1, 2024. However, in the fall, references to the July 1 transition were quietly removed. Instead, the announcement referred to an unspecified transition period.
In a recent update, the government has extended the PDSP transition date to Nov. 1, 2024. The statement now reads, “[f]ollowing a transition period, Canada Life will begin administering the plans under the new ASO contract Nov. 1, 2024.”
I am not expecting them to have learned any lessons from the PSHCP change.
