Career Impact Allowance (CIA)

Navrat ,

The Liberals are focused on the NVC , we will see when the particulars are out but I doubt they will change that , hopefully I'm wrong.

Personally myself , the tax free PA is much better regardless of the difference in how much this CIA is - or is going to be , but that's just me , I would not apply for it , if it was offered.

What will the rates be for CIA? I can see it being one level!

Trooper what about the EIA clients, ? The rule is if you have ever or are receiving EIA you can never get pia or supplement.

I'm thinking any Veteran who's Career was cut short due to Medical reasons will now qualify to submit an application for this particular benefit.

Maybe ?

It's the 'optics' of the name change that makes me go hmmmm?

I think it's a long-game move. 10 years down the road Joe Canadian will not look at vets as impaired/disabled rather career impaired. Which Joe Canadian will ask why are vets getting an allowance for not working? Totally glossing over the fact the vet is impaired/disabled.

Makes the Libs look 'responsible' for when they reduce it from 3 levels to just 1 level.

ya me as well teen . one would guess that new standards are coming out for the determination of grade levels based on your disabilities impact on your career . thing is after watching the lions,tigers and bears of this unadulterated shyt show the political clowns in charge could just be planning to give the whole fracking circus away. who the frack knows ?

This is very curious. Can't wait to hear why the name change.

Expanding access to higher grades of the Permanent Impairment Allowance to better support veterans who have had their career options limited by a service-related illness or injury. The potential impact of the permanent and severe impairments on veterans' career advancement opportunities would be considered in determining the appropriate level of financial support. The benefit would also be renamed Career Impact Allowance to better reflect the intent of the program.
