Community and Social Services is launching a new, user-friendly online application for the Income Support program today on June 8, 2022. The online application can be accessed at
The new easy-to-use application means Albertans can apply for benefits 24/7 from anywhere using a computer or mobile device. Other improvements include enabling applicants to submit required documents online and save their partially completed application so they can return to it later.
The enhancements to the Income Support system align with the new online application for the Assured Income for the Severely Handicapped (AISH) program, which launched in May
Today, most people expect to be able to access the services and supports they need through computers and mobile devices; however, we recognize some people continue to require in-person services. In-person services remain available for those who need them and can be accessed by calling or visiting the local Alberta Supports office. Alberta Supports location and contact information can be found at
