If DJ fails to apply for ODSP, does he have to enter the work force?
Ontario, Canada
The following excerpt is from Shirley v. Campbell, 2018 ONCJ 871 (CanLII):
If entering the work force ends up problematic for DJ, he may need to reconsider ODSP. And if DJ ends up being entitled to ODSP, it may (or it may not) make the table inappropriate. See Senos v. Karcz, 2014 ONCA 459. If he fails to apply and he should have, then this too may become an issue. But none of this was explored by either counsel at the trial. Instead the parties focused on whether he was still a dependant or not.
