Here is a list of Federal and Provincial support programs and a description of each: Emergency isolation support Eligible working Albertans can receive a one-time emergency isolation support payment of $1,146 if they: ...Continue reading

I have included a link for the Alberta Emergency Isolation support payment of $1146. https://www.alberta.ca/emergency-isolation-support.aspx Please note that the website is currently a mess. I was trying to get on so that I could go through the process of applying for the MyAlberta Digital ID (MADI). Site kept bouncing me in and out.... Please be patient and persistent. I have talked to a number of different people who have successfully made their application. I recommend trying as early as 6am and as late as 3am.

Spoke with a number of clients and then called CRA and Service Canada. I suspect that by the time we start approaching the April 1 Start date for application for the Emergency Care Benefit and as of now, anyone applying for EI, the phone lines will be overwhelmed by applicants. I even suspect the CRA and Service Canada websites will crash but I think that everyone should register for the CRA My Account or the My Service Canada Account. ... This will give you an additional portal to apply for your benefits and you can use both portals (phone and online). This way you can try online while you are on hold. Just remember that persistence and patience will get you through. I am not good at either so I will be yelling and ranting.

The Emergency Care Benefit will provide up to $900 bi-weekly, for up to 15 weeks. This flat-payment Benefit would provide income support to: -Workers, including the self-employed, who are quarantined or sick with COVID-19 but do not qualify for EI sickness benefits. Workers, including the self-employed, who are taking care of a family member who is sick with COVID-19, such as an elderly parent, but do not qualify for EI sickness benefits.... -Parents with children who require care or supervision due to school closures, and are unable to earn employment income, irrespective of whether they qualify for EI or not. -Application for the Benefit will be available in April 2020, and require Canadians to attest that they meet the eligibility requirements. -They will need to re-attest every two weeks to reconfirm their eligibility. -Canadians will select one of three channels to apply for the Benefit: by accessing it on their CRA My Account secure portal; by accessing it from their secure My Service Canada Account; or by calling a toll free number equipped with an automated application process. I will post the phone number as soon as it is available. Try and register for My Account with CRA. I believe this maybe one of the quicker methods to apply. If you have applied for EI benefits before, you can apply with the My Service Canada Account.
