Transitional Assistance Program

How to fill out the three mandatory forms

If your application for Transitional Assistance Program funding is approved, the package of documents we send you includes three important forms, which must be filled out, signed and returned to us before we can arrange for you to receive your funding:

  • Declaration form – You must sign this form in eight places to indicate your agreement and commitment to the Transitional Assistance Program’s requirements.
  • Employer and Employee Resignation/Retirement Agreement – You and your employer will fill out and sign this form to indicate your resignation/retirement date and your employer’s consent to this.
  • Direction to Pay form – You will use this form to tell us when and in what form to provide you with your Transitional Assistance Program funding.

The following instructions are intended to help you fill out these three forms.

The information you provide on your Declaration, Employer and Employee Resignation/Retirement Agreement and Direction to Pay forms may affect your personal finances in unexpected ways. We strongly encourage you to seek professional financial advice if you are unsure about the tax and other financial implications of your choices. Program staff are not able (or qualified) to provide you with this type of advice.
