2020 年 3 月 15 日至 10 月 3 日期間，新的加拿大緊急救助津貼（CERB） 將提供每月 2，000 加元的付稅津貼。
根據政府網站，如果你符合以下條件可以申請此津貼：
- 因 COVID-19 停止工作且沒有帶薪假期或其他收入的員工。
- 生病、隔離或照顧患有 COVID-19 病人的員工。
- 有工作，但因要照顧孩子（生病或因學校和幼兒園關閉在家的孩子）而沒有薪金的父母。
- 依然受雇，但因目前工作不足且被雇主要求停工而沒有薪金的員工。
- 沒有就業保險（EI）的時薪階層和自雇，及合同工。
在申請的四周內你至少連續 14 天沒有工作，且在這 14 天內，你沒有從雇主或自營職業、就業保險 （EI）或任何其他福利（懷孕或育兒假）中獲得任何收入。如果你自願辭職，也沒有資格申請。
你必須年滿 15 歲，居住在加拿大，在2019 年或過去的 12 個月裏，總收入不低於 5，000 元。
緊急救助津貼（CERB）不同於就業保險（EI)。如果你已領取 EI，將繼續領取，不要申請此津貼（CERB)。如果你的 EI 在 2020 年 10 月 3 日之前結束，且仍然因 COVID-19 而無法返工，可以再申請緊急救助津貼（CERB)。
如果你符合上述條件，可以在 2020 年 4 月初申請緊急救助津貼（CERB)，通過 CRA 網站或電話進行申請。

*** This is not an official government communication or legal advice ***
The new Canada Emergency Response Benefits (CERB) will provide a taxable benefit of $2,000 per month during the period March 15 to October 3, 2020.
According to the Government’s website, you will be able to apply to the CERB if you are:
- A worker who must stop working due to COVID19 and do not have access to paid leave or other income support.
- A worker who is sick, quarantined, or taking care of someone who is sick with COVID-19.
- A working parent who must stay home without pay to care for children that are sick or need additional care because of school and daycare closures.
- A worker who still have their employment but are not being paid because there is currently not sufficient work and their employer has asked them not to come to work.
- A wage earner and self-employed individual, including contract worker, who would not otherwise be eligible for Employment Insurance.
You must stop working for at least 14 consecutive days within the four-week period for which you apply and during that 14-day period you must not receive any income from employment or self-employment, Employment Insurance (EI) benefits, or any other benefits for pregnancy or parental leave. You are not eligible for the CERB if you quit your job voluntarily.
You must also be 15 years old, a resident in Canada, and have a total employment income of at least $5,000 in 2019 or in the 12-month period before you applied for CERB.
The CERB is different than Employment Insurance (EI). If you are already receiving EI, you will continue to receive EI and should not apply to the CERB. If your EI benefits end before October 3, 2020 and you are still unable to return to work because of COVID-19, you can apply for the CERB.
If you meet the above criteria, you will be able to apply for the CERB at the beginning of April 2020. You will be able to apply through the CRA MyAccount secure portal, your secure My Service Canada Account or over the phone.
