Government Benefits: Keeping Appointments

If you are applying for or receiving any type of government benefit, try not to miss appointments.  Show up on time for appointments whenever possible.  If you know that you are going to miss an appointment, try to phone as soon as possible before the appointment time and ask to reschedule.  If you will be over five minutes late for your appointment, phone as soon as possible to let them know that you will be late.
