Equipment grants for people with MS
Eligibility check
MS Canada may help if a health care professional has confirmed your MS or allied disease, your household's monthly income after tax is within its limit, and you apply before you buy. Five quick questions. Nothing you choose leaves this page.
Question 1 of 5
No health care professional has confirmed MS or an allied disease.
MS Canada's Quality of Life Program is for people whose MS or allied disease is confirmed by a health care professional. An MS Navigator can talk through other options at 1-844-859-6789.
Only MS Canada decides. The grant is not guaranteed and depends on your need and the funds available. Questions: call an MS Navigator at 1-844-859-6789.
The item is already ordered or paid for.
MS Canada may not repay equipment you have already bought, and the application asks you to confirm that nothing is ordered or paid for. For anything else you need, apply first and buy after the grant is confirmed.
Only MS Canada decides. The grant is not guaranteed and depends on your need and the funds available. Questions: call an MS Navigator at 1-844-859-6789.
Your household's monthly income is over the limit.
Over the limit, you can still ask about an appeal if you face hardship. Contact the Specialist, Funding Programs at [email protected] or 1-800-268-7582. A volunteer committee from the MS community decides appeals.

You are not sure about your household income.
MS Canada compares your household's monthly income after tax with the limit for the number of people in your home. At or below it, you can apply; over it, you can ask about an appeal.

Your answers fit the rules and you need equipment.
Apply online, ask the occupational therapist, physiotherapist or doctor prescribing the equipment to complete the health care professional assessment, and get a quote from a vendor. The grant is up to $1,000 a year.

Before you buy
Apply and wait for MS Canada's decision before you order anything. MS Canada does not fund equipment after the fact, and the application asks you to confirm that you have not ordered or paid for it and that your quotes are valid. Arrange any other funding first, because an approved grant must be used within 3 months.
How to apply
Apply online, or email or mail the printable form, with a health care professional's assessment and a vendor quote. MS Canada decides before anything is bought.

How we help
Our part is the equipment: the quote the application asks for, the product details, and delivery once MS Canada confirms the grant.
Questions
Anything else about the equipment or the quote, ask us. Questions about your application go to MS Canada.
Call (905) 798-1853Up to $1,000 per person each calendar year, for equipment, assistive technology or repairs. You can send more than one application in a year, but the total stays at $1,000, and the amount depends on your need and the funds MS Canada has.
It depends on how many people live in your home. Monthly household income after tax must be at or below $2,684 for one person, $3,267 for two, $4,069 for three, $5,076 for four, $5,780 for five, $6,411 for six and $7,041 for seven or more. These are Statistics Canada's low income cut-offs multiplied by 1.5, and you can ask about an appeal if you face hardship.

Scooters, wheelchairs and walkers are on MS Canada's list of mobility aids, new or recycled. Power wheelchairs are not named separately, so check with MS Canada before you apply. The grant is up to $1,000 a year, and MS Canada encourages cost sharing and asks you to use other funding first.
Yes, for equipment you own that is on the program's list, for example new batteries for a power wheelchair. Use the repair application. No health care professional assessment is needed for a repair.
