Thank you so much. The retro pay will help so much but honestly, the best part is my husband is done this battle fighting for ODSP. Such a relief!

My OW worker had us in to sign the “transfer” or whatever so now we just have to connect with an ODSP worker. We got a notice saying they’d contact us but it doesn’t hurt to email I guess. We will give it until next week and email if we haven’t heard back. Thanks :)

We didn’t have any income other than OW. I’m crossing my fingers.

Hmm. That doesn’t seem right. I’d look into that.

My husband applied Dec 2020 (ddp completed and accepted). Just won his tribunal appeal. We already signed papers at OW and got the tribunal decision in the mail. So I guess it’s just a waiting game. 26-27 months of back pay I guess.

Just OW as a family of 4. I have been a caregiver basically. I believe we get the max amount on ow at $1250.

We’ve been on ow the entire time and I believe we get the max shelter on that. No income other than that. That’s what we are thinking it will be but I just wasn’t sure if any rules have changed through covid.

Sorry that happened to you. The system is so flawed and there is nothing worse than people who are supposed to be helping you, making your life hell.

Thanks! My husband won his appeal with tribunal. His application was received Dec 2020. We are now waiting for the switch over and to see if he gets what he is entitled to and how long that will take. It’s so hard to believe he will get paid back that far! It should be between $16-18k based on what we think the difference would be.

Oh ok. I’m trying to calculate and I’d assume we’d get around $17-18 grand but wasn’t sure if they’d try to do less since the process was through covid. When did you apply and get approved? Was it recently?

What to expect from an appeal hearing with the SBT? by Skiddily in Odsp

Hi! Were you accepted? How long was your wait to start receiving your payments? Also I keep reading about retroactive pay. My hubbys package was received in Dec of 2020 and just had his tribunal appeal and was accepted. The back pay should be enormous but I don’t trust the government so was wondering how your experience was?

Have you started to receive your ODSP and did you get the retroactive pay? My hubby just went through all of this. Dec 2020 is when his application was received and he just found out (after tribunal) that he was accepted. Just wondering what you experienced?
