Canada Recovery Sickness Benefit (CRSB)

 

The Canada Recovery Sickness Benefit (CRSB) gives income support to employed and self-employed individuals who are unable to work because they are sick or need to self-isolate due to COVID-19, or have an underlying health condition that puts them at greater risk of getting COVID-19.

Those eligible for the CRSB can receive $500 ($450 after taxes withheld) for a 1-week period up to a total of 4 weeks between September 27, 2020 and September 25, 2021.
