Step 4 - Saskatchewan Assured Income for Disability

Have you completed a Disability Impact Assessment?

You answered "no".

Here is how you will complete a Disability Impact Assessment.

Once your intake process is finished, you will be contacted to complete a Disability Impact Assessment. The Disability Impact Assessments are done by trained individuals through SaskAbilities and do not work for the Ministry of Social Services. These individuals are called “Assessors”. The Disability Impact Assessment can be completed over the phone, at your home or another location. You can have a support person attend with you if you would be more comfortable.

Please note that if you live in a group home, personal care home, special care home, hospital long term care, approved homes or are receiving person care in the home of a relative AND have been assessed as requiring level 2 care or higher, you will not need to complete a Disability Impact Assessment.

What if I don’t know my level of care?

If you are receiving personal care in the home of a relative or a personal care home, you will have your physician complete the Medical Report – Assessment of Level of Care instead of completing the Disability Impact Assessment. You will be provided this form by the Ministry.

If you live in an approved private-service home, special care home, or are in a hospital long-term, your level of care will be determined by the Community Living Service Delivery or the Ministry of Health. You will not need to complete a Disability Impact Assessment.

Important information about benefits for Indigenous Peoples

If you are Indigenous there are many things that affect the benefits you can get and the dollar amounts you can get from them. These include the agreements your band or governing body has with provincial, territorial, and federal governments. Before applying to any benefits, you should speak with your governing body, if applicable.

AFOA Canada and Prosper Canada are currently seeking funding to develop an online tool that serves the needs of Indigenous people living in Canada.
