What this service does for you
The Istituto delle assicurazioni sociali (IAS) is the cantonal compensation office in Ticino. It pays out AHV pensions and family allowances. If an older relative suffers a stroke, the IAS clarifies contribution questions. It also informs you about applying early to the Ufficio AI, which is located in the same building. For family caregivers who reduce their working hours, it is the contact point for family allowances. The counter hours are limited to the morning and early afternoon.
