Current as of August 20, 2020, 13:00 MST
The Canada Emergency Response Benefit (CERB) will be extended by an additional four weeks to a maximum of 28 weeks. The many Canadians expecting to exhaust their CERB benefits at the end of August will now be able to access an additional month of support.
Employment Insurance (EI) will be available to more Canadians, including those who would not have qualified for EI in the past. This simplified EI program is effective September 27, 2020. Applications for the new recovery benefits will open in October, with payments flowing in three to five days after application submission.
