dc.description.abstract | We provide benchmark estimates for joint and survivor life expectancy for Canadian couples and show how these estimates vary with the income and employment status of couples approaching retirement. For example, a 65-year-old couple with his and her life expectancies of 15.7 and 19.8 years can expect to both be alive for only 12.5 years. 60% of these women will outlive their spouses and should expect an average of 11.9 years of widowhood; 40% of these men. will be predeceased by their wives and will live another 9.1 years on average | en_US |
