Tell OW about money you make
You must tell OW how much money you, your spouse, and your dependants make each month from:
- jobs
- training allowances
- being self-employed
Your spouse can be a person of any sex or gender. It does not matter if you are married or not.
Dependants are people who live with you and who you take care of financially. For example, this could be your children or elderly parents.
Income that OW does not count
OW will not count money earned by a dependant who:
- is a full-time student in high school, college, or university
- is younger than 18
- lives in a First Nations community and gets money from an employment training program that lasts up to 12 months
