How do you find a PDF file of a CPP application form?

A downloadable PDF of the application for Canada Pension Plan retirement benefits is available at ServiceCanada.GC.ca. From the home page, click on Forms, then Canada Pension Plan, then ISP1000 to access the form.

To apply for CPP benefits, the applicant must be at least 59 years and one month old, states Service Canada. Applicants must also have contributed to the CPP fund. They can expect payments to begin within 12 months of applying. The standard age for CPP retirement benefits is age 65, but reduced benefits are available at 60. Residents of Quebec can find retirement forms under the Quebec Pension Plan at the Régie des Rentes du Québec website.
