individual’s who are on Persons with Disabilities (PWD) pension. The
government of BC have increased the amount of allowable earnings for
employment both part/time and fulltime from $500.00 to $800.00 dollars.
This means that individuals on PWD can earn $800.00 dollars a month in
addition to receiving their regular monthly benefits. For more
