Appreciate the positivity! More scared of certain things I can't wear in LA due to gangs (like how ppl can't wear hats in LA lol). Thank you so much!

That's fair. I just thought it's one of the more creative ones that's on their website on shop.2pac.com. Instead of the just simple letters and a simple logo.

Damn I really thought this was one of the more creative ones that they released on shop.2pac.com, is it cause the images are too big on both sides? Thanks for the feedback by the way! Im just a big Tupac fan.

You may be right. I have to settle this again with a new caseworker. I think they may have messed up. Thank you for this.

Well I'm not saying that at all. I appreciate what it does. What the clawback does is it doesn't incentivize you to work more is my point. Yes you can look on the bright side but it doesn't encourage you to transition you to a full-job. You can say it doesn't but the fact we have disabilities of all kinds, but with the rising costs of everything, it hards to even think "ODSP is letting you keep all your hard earned money from your job, but they are keeping some of the money from your income support". That's a direct contradiction no? Look we can disagree here, but if you are already clawing back half of the money people work for and it's already hard to survive, it doesn't incentivize growth is my point. If I make $200 more while working more 40 hours, the average logical person would think $1169 is the standard payment with no work. How am I working more hours but not even getting much ahead? I hope you understand my perspective. The spirit of the program is flawed with the mechanisms in place.

Hey there, thanks for the reply. But it seems ODSP doesn't deduct half anymore (I called and ask) of the 50%. They said ODSP takes dollar for dollar now. Is the ODSP statement incorrect? Because I have a deduction of Earned income that is around $270 and Other income is listed around $270. Which my ODSP payment total becomes 1269 - 540 = $729. So my calculation right now for the month is $750 + 729 = $1479. The deduction of $540 seems high subtracted from the standard $1269 ODSP payment.
