加拿大紧急救援补助金

“加拿大紧急救援补助金CERB（Canada EmergencyResponse Benefit）”提供临时的收入支持，以帮助因COVID-19疫情之相关原因而停止工作、并失去了就业或自雇收入的工作人士。
加拿大紧急救援补助金取代政府于2020年3月18日宣布的“紧急护理补贴（Emergency Care Benefit）”和“紧急支持补贴Emergency Support Benefit”。

资格条件：CERB将向以下工作人士开放：

• 居住在加拿大，至少15岁以上；

• 因为COVID-19疫情而停止工作的人士；

• 在2019年或在申请之日前的12个月内，收入至少有5,000元的人；

• 在最初的四个星期内连续至少14天内，没有或预期没有就业或自雇收入的人士。对于随后的补助期内，预期他们没有就业收入。

此项补助也适用于3月15日之后有资格获得就业保险中的常规或病假补助的人士。

至少5,000元的收入可以来自以下任何一个或多个来源：就业、自雇就业、就业保险计划下的产妇和父母津贴，以及/或魁北克父母保险计划规定之在魁北克支付的类似津贴。

此项补助仅适用于因与COVID-19疫情相关的原因而停止工作的个人。如果您未因COVID-19而停止工作，则没有资格获得此补贴。

申请流程

• CERB的申请将从2020年4月6日起在Canada.ca/coronavirus开放。

申请者将被问到一些简单的问题，以帮助引导他们选择以下两种服务选项之一：

• 通常情况下有资格获得EI福利的加拿大人，将被指引到加拿大服务局Service Canada，通过Appliweb 申请CERB；

• 通常情况下不符合获得EI福利资格的加拿大人，将被指引到CRA（税务局）的MyAccount、或通过CRA的自动免费电话1-800-959-2019申请CERB。

 拨打免费电话1-800-959-2019的加拿大人，将被连接到CRA的自动电话系统。这是申请CERB的专用电话。申请人需要确认他们符合资格标准，而个人在申请过程中所提供的信息可能会在后来进行查验。

此补助金计划适用于2020年3月15日到2020年10月3日。您可以在2020年12月2日之前申请。

在线申请

加拿大人可以为申请CERB做好预先准备，注册“我的帐户MyAccount”或“我的加拿大服务帐号My Service Canada Account”。他们还应确保自己的“直接存款”项以及在CRA上的邮寄信息为最新信息。

金额

CERB将以四个星期为单位每次支付2,000加元，相当于每周500元。如果个人情况持续，申请人可以重复申请多个四周为周期的付款，最长期限为16周（4个周期）。

受理时间

一旦2020年4月6日开始申请程序之后，加拿大人可以期望在三到五个工作日内通过直接存款收到付款，或在10个工作日内收到支票。
