Do not complete and sign the SOI before the 16th of each month as all income must be declared from the 16th of the previous month to the 15th of the current month.
The SOI can be dropped off at the closest OW office or mailed to the office location indicated on the SOI.
If you have more than two members of your family that are working, either request an additional SOI form from reception or copy the one you receive in order to record all earnings of all family members.
If your Statement of Income is not received by the 16th of each month, or if it is not complete or correct, there may be a delay in your Ontario Works Financial Assistance.
If you are not sure how to report your income, contact your Case Manager.
