[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 308906, member: 3907"] Yup. That's the way it works up here as well, except you have to fill out the paperwork first, and then go in to meet with the disability support counsellor to have an interview and answer the exact. same. questions. I think there's more to it than simply weeding out those who aren't serious about applying. I think they make the application process so difficult that many people don't qualify who should do. That way, the government can boast about providing services without actually...well...providing services. I'm no conspiracy theorist either, but I have done a LOT of work consulting to various government ministries in my province INCLUDING the one that provides disability support, so I've seen this first hand from the inside. When we helped difficult child apply for disability benefits, the paperwork was so complex that if difficult child had to do it alone he never would have gotten through the first page. Ugh, indeed!
