Re: Migrating to NZ Well, more than anything I think this is because it is a program you don't have to have worked before to qualify. The disability program people who have worked can get, once someone qualifies has alot less of those requirements. URL: https://forum.audiogames.net/post

Re: Migrating to NZ Hi,You hguys do bring up some extremely valid points. Honestly, were it not for the transphobia, I'd have no problem trying to make it work here, I'd have an easier time of it, that's for certain. But like, if I'm having to wait years just to receive basic treatment

Re: Migrating to NZ well Brad, that is exactly how it is. The money you can't pay that your friend helps you with counts as income assistance by someone even if you literally didn't have income to pay it. That causes an benefit cut, which would make you need assistance, which would make

Re: Migrating to NZ @ghost, can you give me an example? I'm not sure I'm following.Are you saying that if you share a place with someone and your rent each is $500 and you can't pay that they take it out of your income? But that makes no sense, how can they take money you don't have? URL

Re: Migrating to NZ those afordable units are a tiny tiny fraction of the people who need them. And if you stay with someone, and don't contribute your share to the bills, even when the  share you have esceeds your income, the part you don't contribute counts as income, and is used

Re: Migrating to NZ 7, well, usually a job offers more money and that's why blind people try to get them. Though you are right about extremely low pay or minimum wage jobs. But in the US the disability money if you haven't worked basicly is a joke and there is an enormous list of things

Re: Migrating to NZ It sounds to me as if Haily has done at least -some of the research necessary.Brad, have you considered that most places with higher taxes also usually have better infrastructure supported by those taxes? 10% isn't great, I won't lie, but it's not backbreaking. Trust me
