The present invention relates to a method for receiving a downlink signal and an apparatus therefor. Specifically, the method for receiving a downlink signal comprises the steps of: receiving first time offset information and second time offset information from a base station, wherein the first time offset information and the second time offset information each indicate the time offset between the reception time of a specific signal and the reception time of a specific channel associated with the specific signal, and the first time offset information is set to have a length shorter than that of the second time offset information; and monitoring the specific signal at a time position determined on the basis of one of the first time offset information and the second time offset information, wherein the one offset information is determined on the basis of the capability of a user device.
