How to consent to CRA income verification for social assistance — and autofill the form with my-id.ca
Sign the CRA consent for social assistance without retyping your details
Ontario Works and ODSP may ask you to consent so the ministry can verify your income with the Canada Revenue Agency — and the consent form repeats your name, address, and identifying details. This guide is an example of storing them once in my-id.ca.
Official form and source
Start from the official source and always use the current version — form numbers and links can change:

What this form is about
