CPP Disability

Canada Pension Plan Disability Benefit

 Health and work are essential parts of our lives. Not being able to work due to injury or health issues can have devastating consequences concerning our everyday lives. Do not feel abandoned. There are support programs available for you, and Canada Pension Plan Disability (“CPPD”) is one to help stabilize you while you are recovering.  CPPD is a federal program that supports individuals who cannot work due to permanent disability.  Once your application is approved, you will receive a monthly payment until the age of 65 just long as you continue to meet the requirements.
