The Federal Government is also delaying the time to pay student loans by three months as well as enhancing the Canada child benefit. The Canada Emergency Response Benefit will provide workers who lose their jobs due to Covid-19 with $2,000 a month. This is replacing the Emergency Care Benefit and the Emergency Support benefit in order to stream-line the process.
An application portal will launch as soon as possible and people will begin receiving money 10 days after applying.
