Claim Cerb and Support Canadians

week: By the first week of July and through the summer, millions of Canadians will come to the end of their 16-week eligibility period to claim CERB, which has prompted questions about what will happen to those who have been on the program since it first launched and have already accessed the full 8,000 available, but are still out of a job and without income due to COVID-19, according to CTV. The prime minister announced on Monday that because so many are still struggling, the government is working on a solution to extend the benefit for people who can't return to work yet. For now, all I can say is that we will continue to be there to support Canadians, Trudeau said.

There are also Canadians who could be coming up to the end of their benefit payments earlier if they were rolled onto the program from the Employment Insurance program at the very outset. The first application period opened in early April, and Canadians are able to claim the benefit for a maximum of 16 weeks between March 15 and October 3, meaning there will still be Canadians receiving funding for weeks to come, but others are soon going to run out.
