There are two liaison agencies for Canada. The first is the Department of National Health and Welfare which administers the Canada Pension Plan (CPP) and the Old Age Security (OAS) Pension. The second agency is the Direction de l'administration des Ententes de Securite Sociale (DAESS) in Quebec, whose primary function is to prepare claims packages for Quebec residents who want to claim U.S. benefits and send them to one of the four border offices which service Quebec. In addition to DAESS, the Regie des rentes du Quebec (RRQ) administers the Quebec Pension Plan (QPP).
