In my case OSAP waiver is decided by my taxable income in the year I graduated. I graduated in summer and started to work in September. Since I have only 4 months income, I qualified for the OSAP waiver. I don't know what is the qualifying income, but I am sure it's lower than my annual salary. The funny thing is I didn't even know there is this thng called OSAP waiver. I took a loan from my bank to payback all my OSAP because the bank loan rate is slightly lower. Naturally I didn't apply for the waiver. The government automatically credited my bank account after I filed the tax return the next year. oops, thank you :-) Mssg might be right, don't think about it, it will follow you.
