You must answer all questions below for us to accept your application.
Does the worker have an arguable case? (Arguable case is a case that presents sufficiently detailed facts,
identifies legal or factual issues that are plausible and which, if accepted by the decision maker, could
substantially affect the decision in the case.)
Does the decision under review or appeal affect the entitlement to current wage loss benefits, and the sum in
question is greater than $500?

Section 3: Application for interim relief continued
Is the worker, spouse or adult interdependent partner ineligible for any other financial support? Please include
documents to support your answer. These can include documents that show you, your spouse or partner are
not able to get financial support, like money or benefits, from anywhere else. For example, a document from a
government agency or organization which provides money or other benefits to people, like Employment
Insurance, Assured Income for the Severely Handicapped or Income Support.
Without interim relief, would the worker and his/her family be placed in necessitous circumstances such as
probable inability to afford basic necessities of life such as food, clothing and shelter, or face probable
forfeiture or seizure of assets (for example, the family home)? Please include documents to support your
answer. These documents can include:
Financial records such as bank and credit card statements.
Documents showing information about mortgage, rent or lease payments and about your ability to make the
payments.
A monthly income and expense statement. This includes a list of how much money you receive each month
and from where. It also includes a list of how much money you spend each month and what you spend it on.

Note that interim relief applications are usually heard on a documentary basis so that we can make a decision
as soon as possible. You may request an in-person hearing but this could delay the process and increase the
time you will wait for a decision. The Appeals Commission will make the final decision on how to hear your
application.
I prefer:
a documentary hearing
an in-person hearing
in Edmonton
in Calgary
