Canada Disability Benefits and ASD
Up here in canada we have what is called the disability tax credit which gives you up to $35000 in tax credits. my parents have been claiming it on theirs since they found out. Plus once you turn 19 as a disabled person you get $900 a month in support, a year city bus pass, and 50% off ferry fares. If the disabled person does not make enough to use the tax credits it can be used on the parents income taxes. You get all medication paid for, all hospital visits, doc appointments, dentists, and glasses paid for. They pay you extra for your utilities bills also. Plus you can make $800 a month without losing any benefits.
