AISH and ADAP transition comparison
Side-by-side cash estimates for Alberta disability income support after the July 2026 reforms. Compare remaining on Assured Income for the Severely Handicapped (AISH) with moving to the Alberta Disability Assistance Program (ADAP), including the 2026 transition top-up.
Estimate only. This tool does not decide whether you remain on AISH or transition to ADAP. Alberta reviews medical and financial criteria. An AISH worker must confirm your file.
The ADAP column includes the $200/month transition top-up through December 31, 2027 for current AISH clients who move to ADAP, as described on alberta.ca.
