How ODSP Payment Timing Usually Works

ODSP payments are typically:

• Paid once per month

• Deposited by direct deposit or loaded to your payment card on the scheduled date

• Issued on business days, with holiday adjustments (especially around December)

Because dates can shift slightly from year to year—especially around long weekends and holidays, it’s important to:

• Check the official ODSP 2026 payment calendar

• Make note of each month’s date in your own calendar

• Plan your rent, bills, and grocery trips around that schedule

Tips for Managing ODSP Payments

• List your must pay bills (rent, utilities, phone, transit) right after your payment date.

• Use a separate space (or account) for groceries and everyday spending so you don’t accidentally use rent money.

• If possible, keep a tiny buffer each month to handle surprises.
