Warhippy Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 My wife and I will be waiting until towards New Years to file. It will help with any number of post Christmas items and the interminable period of nil pay between Christmas and mid January Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just want to add....5 business days after they approve one's application (I'm assuming the straightforward online applications won't take *too long* to process). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoreanHockeyFan Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 It's free money. People need to stop complaining about long it took to apply and how long it's going to take to get it - you'll get your money. Not sure what those who spent hours trying to apply right on the 18th were expecting. Of course it's going to bottleneck - should of just waited a day or two so you could finish your application within 10 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Far better this than seeing it go to private enterprise again 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewbieCanuckFan Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 Just got an email this morning from the govt stating my application has been approved & that payment should be received in five business days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its new debt. 20 hours ago, Warhippy said: Far better this than seeing it go to private enterprise again maybe. It would have been good to have some discussion around what to do with 1+ billion in new debt and if a new program could have helped more people in need and done more good.

I feel bad for people who study or engage in economics as the theories and practices they follow are not necessarily used in the real world. In a nut shell modern finance is nothing but a sham; and a system of manipulation and control. The fact the USA is literally in mountains of debt and yet still keeps printing is a testament to that. China is smart for debting the Americans... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-DLC- Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 What did you need in order to apply? I'm hearing some need bank statements, etc.? And to set up direct deposit....if CERB was already set up re DD then will that be sufficient? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need line 23600 from your 2019 Income tax statement, SIN#, BCDL#, and if you have direct deposit, your banking info on the bottom of a cheque. IE: transit #, Banking institution, and account #. That's all they asked of my application, but for some reason others were asked for utility account proof. Maybe those folks have moved in the last calendar year?!?? Good luck. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They prompt you through all the steps while you do the application. On Friday, it was a very slow process, because my page kept rebooting. There was a person on TV Monday night saying it took him 9 hours? I don't believe that for a moment. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
