1. You apply through the Province where you are living. The current rate in Ontario for a single person is $721.00 per month.
2. You have to apply for a work permit. Soon as you start working, welfare ends.
3. Entitled to health care and that is about it.

And what about childrens which are under 18. They will give them same money per month as adult or they will not give to childrens.

You do not qualify for Ontario works if you have your own savings even quite minimal savings. The welfare program is only in place who don't have access to other means to support themsleves. Not sure of the whole process but you need to prove that you lack the ability to support yourself to qualify.

There seems to be an assumption that everyone answering questions is a man on this forum.
