- moving costs of recipients who have found accommodation that is significantly less expensive than their current accommodation
- moving costs of recipients who have been compelled to move from their rented accommodation
- storage costs if necessary to store the family's personal effects while they are moving (and associated moving costs)
- transportation and living costs of recipients required to attend a child protection hearing
transportation, living, and child care costs of recipients to attend a court hearing or a DNA paternity testing collection site when the recipient is receiving help from the ministry with obtaining a maintenance order or written agreement
