Canada Emergency Student Benefit

If you’re a student or recent graduate unable to work or find employment due to COVID-19 or your income has been $1,000 or less, you may be eligible for the Canada Emergency Student Benefit (CESB). If you are able to work, you must be actively looking for a job to be eligible to receive the benefit.

The CESB will provide $1,250 every four weeks for eligible students or $2,000 every four weeks for eligible students with disabilities or those with children or other dependents.
