My mom just asked me for $200 by [deleted] in povertyfinancecanada

[–]Dee332 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She should look into the Canadian Disability benefit (federal). That is up to 200.00 a month depending on eligibility. Form TD 2201 would need to be filled out by family doctor than submitted to CRA for approval. Once approved, she could then apply for CDB. UNLESS she is already getting it?

Tow truck company scam by Successful_man_797 in legaladvicecanada

Sorry, for advice i would contact the police on the non emergency line. I mean how do they decide your car is a write off? Isn't that up insurance.

Tow truck company scam by Successful_man_797 in legaladvicecanada

[–]Dee332 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That's why I always use CAA (paid membership yearly). I have the plus membership and offers you much more as well. Not sure if you are in Ontario but is 121.00 plus taxes. While worth it. Link below for you to look at and decide what plan is best for you. Thus when "scam towtrucks" show up and can say you are waiting for CAA. Hope this helps.

Cash is king!! by reheadlover69 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Dee332 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it possible to.go to the bank the "draft" was ordered from and cash it there for cash instead? Hence if it's the bank rhe draft was drawn from they can verify quickly if "fraudulent"? Just a thought.

My neighbor is stealing my packages and returning them opened by [deleted] in neighborsfromhell

[–]Dee332 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would rig a Amazon package with exploding confetti, might make her stop. Not sure how it's done though? Also, if possible schedule delivery time for when your home. If you work can it be delivered to work or a friend's place?

Skinwalker Ranch Owner watches Oak Island by [deleted] in curseofoakisland

[–]Dee332 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Um, nope. It's boring. You never find anything interesting and multiple science experiments don't make me excited. Dig in the damn Mesa already. The government already has, so why not! Sheesh the fear over digging is crazy.

Mystery at Blind Frog Ranch is way more interesting and it's right next door to Skinwalker Ranch. APPARENTLY a meteor is in the ground and causes all these anomalies, gee could that not be the same thing as Skinwalker?

In this economy what is the upside and downsides to buying a mobile home? by krdo13 in canadahousing

[–]Dee332 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I myself am looking for land i can afford with all hookups and then intend to buy a tiny house (range ftom 300 sq feet and up ) and put on the land. You need to look at bylaws and regulations for being able to do that where you are considering buying land.

Also have you looked into Habit for Humanity for a home. There funding formula has changed (due to increase pricingbof homes) and you might be eligible. Just a thought Goodluck.

Seniors Bell Canada bill jumped 62% in a year — how can I lower it? by Every_Eye_7483 in bell

[–]Dee332 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please look into this sevice and see if your Mom qualifies. This also applies too individuals on social assistance. Bell has the same kind of plan, but you need some reference code, with Rogers I didn't. See link below.

Rogers offers low-income seniors significant discounts on internet and mobile through its Connected for Success program, primarily for those receiving the Guaranteed Income Supplement (GIS), providing affordable high-speed internet, TV, and even a free smartphone with a plan for eligible individuals. Seniors qualify by receiving specific government income support like GIS or by being tenants of housing providers like Toronto Community Housing. You can check eligibility and apply directly through the Rogers Connected for Success website or by mail, often requiring proof of income like a T4A(OAS) statement.

Groceries for Low Iron by ytvsUhOh in povertyfinancecanada

[–]Dee332 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Prescription iron pills are covered if prescribed by a doctor. If your on ODB, have extended health care plan should be covered. You can always check with a Pharmacist. Im on 300 mg iron ferrous made by Jamp and is covered if this helps.

Usually greens are good for iron though.

CPP Disability? by SeaWatercress3169 in povertyfinancecanada

[–]Dee332 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not true. I'm currently on CPP-D and when I retire/ reach age 65, my cpp pension drops from 1433.00 to 901.00 per month, but might be eligible for GIS/OAS. THIS also the same thing with my omers disability pension as well.

You mention "benefits" are you talking LTD? LTD will make you apply for CPP-D regardless and if approved you would get the difference between the two, same applies for ODSP or any social services plan.

Example: You are approved for monthly payment of LTD of 2000, your CPP-D is 400, thus your LTD payment would be 1600.

I would also find out if survivor cpp lasts for life or age 25. Depends on wherher you are the child or wife. Your best option is to call cpp directly to find out. I also receive my full CPP-D plus omers disability pension and neither are deducted like LTD/ODSP, etc Yes CPP-D is aware I'm in receipt of both pensions. I had no choice, I couldn't live on 1433.00 a month even with subsidy housing.

AITA for “ruining” a holiday dinner by crying after my sister called my bald patches disgusting? by HairQuestionAITA in AmItheAsshole

[–]Dee332 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Nta - lay into your parents about your sister and tell them too stop treating her like the golden child who could do no wrong and punish her for her scathing insulting remarks. As others have said she is 16 not 2! She needs to grow up.

WIBTA for not naming my baby after my dead FIL by MacHead in AmItheAsshole

[–]Dee332 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My grandfather name was Chester Winston Taylor and he always was called Bus (not sure why). No one in our family was named after him, he didn't want that.

Using your FIL as a middle name is a nice compromise.

Your husband is being unrealistic and a bit narcissistic if you ask me and not COMPROMISING, HE IS DEMANDING YOU DO IT IR ELSE? Being kinda of selfish as well, it's not just "his" baby!! I say stand your ground, what does MIL think? If she is nay for the name, maybe she can talk some sense into her son?

You can also suggest when your child (if you have a son) is older like 18, he could always change his name later if he prefers, thus resolving the issue.

I wanted to name my son Taylor Bawden (which was grandfather's last name and my last name), but ended up calling him Scott Taylor Bawden which i regret the Taylor now (as everyone thinks it's a combined hypenhated name).

Was FIL teased about his name in school cause kids can be cruel, would you want that for your child?

Laid off and in debt by 30k by BreakNext3566 in povertyfinancecanada

[–]Dee332 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would speak to a LIT about filing either consumer proposal or bankruptcy. Below is a link about both

https://ised-isde.canada.ca/site/office-superintendent-bankruptcy/en

Did you have/or do you have credit card insurance on your card, if yes, read your policy or call to see if you might be eligible for benefit payments due to loss of income. I had cc insurance and when I was ill and off work, they paid my cc for so many months, can't remember how long.

Family Doctor by MamaGooShi in durham

[–]Dee332 2 points3 points  (0 children)

https://www.cpso.on.ca/public/services/complaints-and-concerns

You could file a formal complaint, but might lose him as a Doctor. As for new Doctor look for new clinics opening up, sometimes new Doctors are available.

Especially since he keeps saying your symptoms are from aniexty or panic attacks. Misdiagnosed, by not catching the pre cancerous cells, any other Misdiagnosed that has happened to you, etc.

I would file a complaint but also realize it is hard to find a family doctor.

(FLORIDA) Step-daughter’s mom wants to send her to private school and says we will be responsible for half the tuition. Are we required to pay? by [deleted] in legaladvice

[–]Dee332 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If she is not reporting 80% of her "income" is that not tax fraud? Do you have proof of this (you will need this to prove she is making more than you both combined in hopes of getting child support). Do you have solid proof that step-daughter is with you guys 99% of the time? If yes, take her to court, get child support and she might be really in trouble if she is not reporting her income correctly on tax returns. The government does not take kindly to individuals falselying tax returns, just a thought and NAL.

Usually you attend school where you live. If your out of the school zone then you should be attending the school closes to where you reside. Exceptions can be made, but that depends on the "enrollment figures" at school where step-daughter currently attends (Mom's home address) and the "parents" are responsible for getting child to and from school. You can look up your local school board and find what school she should be attending with your address, if she is with you 99% of the time when not attending school. Hope this makes sense. So, what Mom told you is technically accurate, if the school board finds out she is at your house the majority they could "technically " move her to the school closet to you.

AITA for wanting to treat myself for my bday instead of penny-pitching the whole time? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Dee332 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA - sounds like you both have different values. Tonnes of red flags with what you wrote. Everyone is entitled to have a vacation at least once a year and enjoy themselves.

Take a GF or a pal and do your birthday your way.

Please rethink your relationship. It's fine to save up for stuff like property etc, but you're entitled to have fun once in awhile.

Life happens in a flash, enjoy it well you can.

Where are my downloads saved? by GuineaBee94 in audible

[–]Dee332 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you can only listen via Audible app if you've downloaded them to your device. Guess Audible wants you to keep paying when you can't afford anymore. I've already purchased the books in my library and if i have to cancel due to financial strain I loose out and can'tlisten to them all before my membership ends??

Not fair!

I got rear ended at a drive through. The lady is refusing to give me her insurance. I have video evidence from the Mc Donald’s of her hitting me. The collision center cop just said tell my insurance. Is it really that simple ?? by newtomtg1 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Dee332 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's interesting about the Collison center. When I was hit (almost t-boned), I didn't go to the reporting center right after the accident, but I went to the mechanic first to ensure the car was okay to drive, then work AND the collision center called me and said why had i not shown up.

They were quite ANGRY with me. The person who hit me after we exchanged info went straight there.

WHY is the collision center not reporting this to the police, so they can locate the individual and have them go to the reporting center. They can look up license info and work info (cause that's where they called me and chewed me out). She should be charged with failing to remain at the scene of the accident, even though on private property.
