• The CDB is exempted in most provinces — meaning you keep the full $200/month on top of provincial benefits. The major exception is Alberta, which claws it back from AISH.
• Apply for the DTC first. The Disability Tax Credit is the gateway to federal benefits and may also speed up provincial applications.
• Waitlists are long.Apply as early as possible. Some provinces allow you to apply before you've exhausted other benefits.
