如何知道你有资格领取'加拿大紧急救助津贴'，因COVID-19 而停止工作的员工 canadalaw2020-03-29 14:17:20

***此文非官方网站或详细法律指南***

2020 年 3 月 15 日至 10 月 3 日期间，新的加拿大紧急救助津贴（CERB） 将提供每月 2，000 加元的付税津贴。

根据政府网站，如果你符合以下条件可以申请此津贴：

• 因 COVID-19 停止工作且没有带薪假期或其他收入的员工。
• 生病、隔离或照顾患有 COVID-19 病人的员工。
• 有工作，但因要照顾孩子（生病或因学校和幼儿园关闭在家的孩子）而没有薪金的父母。
• 依然受雇，但因目前工作不足且被雇主要求停工而没有薪金的员工。
• 没有就业保险（EI）的时薪阶层和自雇，及合同工。

在申请的四周内你至少连续 14 天没有工作，且在这 14 天内，你没有从雇主或自营职业、就业保险 （EI）或任何其他福利（怀孕或育儿假）中获得任何收入。如果你自愿辞职，也没有资格申请。

你必须年满 15 岁，居住在加拿大，在2019 年或过去的 12 个月里，总收入不低于 5，000 元。

紧急救助津贴（CERB）不同于就业保险（EI)。如果你已领取 EI，将继续领取，不要申请此津贴（CERB)。如果你的 EI 在 2020 年 10 月 3 日之前结束，且仍然因 COVID-19 而无法返工，可以再申请紧急救助津贴（CERB)。

如果你符合上述条件，可以在 2020 年 4 月初申请紧急救助津贴（CERB)，通过 CRA 网站或电话进行申请。

*** 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.
