Pickup arrangements have been made available across the province for Social Development payments.
Social assistance payments sent by direct deposit are being issued as usual.
However, staff cannot mail cheques to clients due to the ongoing Canada Post strike.
December’s cheques have been sent to regional offices for pickup by recipients.
You must bring two pieces of identification to collect your payment.
If you need alternate arrangements, you should contact your case manager.
