Funding: Apprenticeship Incentive Grant – Developing your application

4. Developing your application

To complete your Apprenticeship Incentive Grant application, you are required to submit supporting documents. You will find below a list of the required supporting documents for each province and territory. Only a few provinces are required to issue documents in both official languages.

If you do not have the required supporting documents indicated, contact your provincial or territorial apprenticeship issuing authority and submit your application on or before June 30 of the calendar year following the date you progressed in your apprenticeship program. Once you have received your supporting document, you must mail your documents to an Apprenticeship Grant processing centre or deliver them to a Service Canada Centre near you. Service Canada will honour the date of your online application or the postmark date on your mailed application.

To consult the list, click on the province or territory in which you are registered as an apprentice.

For each province or territory:

  • As an apprentice, you are required to provide a document of proof of registration by the issuing authority for that province or territory. You also need to provide a document that demonstrates progression of the first year/level (or equivalent) and/or the second year/level (or equivalent), such as a letter or other official document from your apprenticeship authority. One or more documents may be required as specified by the province or territory.
