Where can I find a list of all the illnesses & disabilities that qualify & those that dont. I don’t want to waste time going on & on about something that isn’t a consideration. But I can’t find that anywhere. Just the grave terminal illness annex. But I am not immediately dying right now.

A list of what qualifies for CPP-D?
I don’t think is a black and white list.
Anything does if it affects your life enough and is supported by medical documentation.

Ask your doctor or therapist. If they are clueless find a new one. Don’t give up.

There is no such list in Canada. They USA Social Security Disability program has a list of illnesses and requirements, but we don’t have anything like that in Canada. With CPP Disability the focus is on impairment and disability with work capacity, and not on the specific medical diagnosis.
