Where do you live?

In Canada the eligibility requirements for the emergency unemployment benefit are:
- At least 5000$ income in 2019 or the last 12 months.
- You have not been working for 2 weeks due to the pandemic.

If you qualify based on the above, you will receive a universal 500$/week until October no matter what your income was. Self-employed and gig workers included.
