This is just a reminder that the CRB program is still available for those self employed individuals who are eligible. Although the online systems will be down during the weekend of November 28th,2020 to November 30th, 2020 applications are still being accepted via telephone.
The Canada Recovery Benefit (CRB) gives income support to employed and self-employed individuals who are directly affected by COVID-19 and are not entitled to Employment Insurance (EI) benefits. The CRB is administered by the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA).
If you are eligible for the CRB, you can receive $1,000 ($900 after taxes withheld) for a 2-week period.
If your situation continues past 2 weeks, you will need to apply again. You may apply up to a total of 13 eligibility periods (26 weeks) between September 27, 2020 and September 25, 2021.
If you would like to inquire into your eligibility, and submit an application, we would be more than happy to assist. Please feel free to book an appointment or contact us today.
