This seminar is presented by a Disability Advisor from Ministry of Social Development. There is broad information about the following supports:

  • Supported Living Payment
  • Supported Living Payment – Care of the Sick and Infirm
  • Accommodation Supplement
  • Disability Allowance
  • Child Disability Allowance
  • Job Seeker Allowance

Also discussed is eligibility criteria, application process and dispute processes for Work and Income supports.

This seminar covers broad information – this is not a forum for detailed public discussion of individuals circumstances. Complex questions may be addressed via Disability Connect staff. There is also advice on the best way to apply for complex supports and the supporting information required.
