She is not required to file a OAS tax return - that is optional.  She receives the NR4 slip so that she knows what income to report in her new country of taxation.  You don't have to do anything, but she has to repay the GIS if she was overpaid.

Hi,

Just to add , CRA has guidance regarding Old Age Security Return of Income (OASRI) here
