Your Passport agency is not able to increase your funding amount.
How funding amounts are determined
Once you complete your DSO assessment, your funding amount is automatically determined by a Ministry system. The system considers a variety of factors such as behavioural, medical, and personal support needs, and caregiver circumstances when determining how much funding you’re eligible for.
If there is a change in these circumstances after your DSO assessment, you need to contact your area DSO to let them know. If it is determined that you’re eligible for an increase in funding, your local Passport agency will let you know.
Things that won’t change your funding amount
Your funding is not determined by your income, increasing cost of services or cost of living. Once you have used all your annual Passport funding, no additional invoices can be reimbursed for that fiscal year. You are encouraged to plan and budget for your expenses based on your annual funding amount.
