| Disability Tax Credit (DTC) Update |
|
The cost of DTC forms may be covered—just hang on to your receipts which typically range from $105–$400. A psychologist may complete the form only if your doctor is not able to complete it first, or you can contact AISH for Part B of your application with written consent. These changes start in January with payments arriving late December. Once you apply, the CRA will take 4–6 weeks to decide. Check your online portal, then update AISH to avoid your benefits from being withheld. |

| Protect Against the Measles |
|
Measles is a highly contagious virus spread through the air—outbreaks are happening in Alberta and worldwide. The best protection is staying up to date on vaccinations (free at AHS clinics), but if you can’t get immunized, avoid high-risk settings and unvaccinated crowds.
