Can I approach the Social Service Office (SSO) for help if my household exceeds the ComCare income benchmark of $800 Per Capita Household Income (PCHI)?

Yes, you can still apply for support even if your income exceeds the $800 Per Capita Household Income (PCHI) benchmark.

Here's what you need to know:


  • Apply online at SupportGoWhere.

  • The Social Service Office (SSO) will assess your household needs to determine appropriate support.

  • Assistance may include:

    • Monthly cash assistance for living expenses

    • Help with household and medical bills

    • Employment assistance (e.g., job search, training)

    • Referrals to other government agencies and community partners for case work and counselling


The SSO will consider your specific circumstances to provide tailored support.
