Annual Income Verification

Eligibility must be verified using the most recent available tax year.

• Until June 30, we may accept the previous year's Notice of Assessment if the current year's assessment is not yet available.
• After June 30, the current tax year's Notice of Assessment is required.
• Documentation for AISH or Alberta Income Support will generally remain valid until the next annual renewal period.
• A Notice of Assessment may only be used once for eligibility. Future applications will require a newer year's assessment.

If your household income exceeds our published guidelines on our website, but you are experiencing special circumstances (such as a recent job loss, medical leave, or other financial hardship), please select "Other" below and provide additional details for consideration.
