What an Ontario Works review asks for — and how to autofill your details with my-id.ca
Complete your Ontario Works review without re-entering your household details
Ontario Works eligibility reviews ask for the same household identity details you provided at initial application. This guide is an example of storing those repeating fields in my-id.ca so each review starts mostly filled.
Official form and source
Start from the official Ontario source and always use the current version — review processes can change:
- Service page: Ontario Works — ontario.ca
What this review is about
Ontario Works conducts periodic reviews to confirm that recipients continue to meet eligibility requirements. The review updates your household information, income, and assets. Circumstances that change between reviews — such as a new household member or change in income — may also trigger an update.
Before you start: what to gather
- Your name, date of birth, and current address.
- Household members' names, dates of birth, and any changes.
- Current income and asset information for the review period.
Confirm the current review process and deadlines with your Ontario Works office.
