What is AISH?
The government of Alberta offers its residents a benefit if they suffer from a severe disability or handicap to help fund their living expenses. This benefit is called the Alberta Income for the Severely Handicapped program, providing a monthly cash deposit for healthcare and life expenses.
Depending on individual needs and circumstances, these benefits can accumulate to over $2,000 a month. As many disabled people cannot work, this program is their primary income source.
Who Is Eligible for the AISH Program?
There are age, residency, medical, and financial requirements to be eligible for the AISH program. To qualify for the AISH program, you must:
- Be 18 years of age or older.
- Be a resident of Alberta.
- Not qualify for the Old Age Security pension program.
- Not be in a correctional facility or mental health facility.
- Have a disability or medical condition that is severe, permanent, or chronic.
- Be unable to work because of your disability and be willing to engage in training to enable you to get a job that suits your needs and comfort.
- Apply for other income assistance programs you may be qualified for before resorting to AISH, such as Employment Insurance or the Canada Pension Plan.
