Canada Emergency Response Benefit (CERB) Repayment

CERB Debt Repayment

Below are scenarios that can result in being required to return the Canada Emergency Response Benefit you previously received from the government.

  • Your employment has resumed earlier than you have anticipated.
  • You received a salary from your employer during the benefit.
  • You received Employment Insurance and CRA benefits during the same period.
  • You were not eligible or qualified.

The reason behind this happening is that The Canadian Government has prioritized the process of approving the CERB applications deliberately. This resulted in an unknown amount of CERB given to individuals who may not be eligible to qualify for certain criteria and Canada Revenue Agency is now examining each case closely to see if repayment is required, a few months after the payments were issued to Canadians.

Canada Emergency Response Benefit (CERB) Repayment

Canada Emergency Response Benefit

It is overwhelming to learn that you need to repay CERB an unexpected debt, as most individuals can’t simply make a payment straight away, especially considering they needed the CERB in the first place. It is understood that CERB was intended to serve as a lifeline or short-term financial relief during the COVID-19 pandemic to cover primary expenses and household needs. However, it is no surprise that these funds were spent just a couple of months after it was received to cover the everyday needs of families affected by COVID19.

CRA has already started sending letters or notices on 31st of December 2020 requesting to ineligible individuals who received CERB to repay the same.

It is stated in their letter that:

  1. They will have flexible repayment options or payment arrangements but will depend on a case-to-case basis.
  2. They will not charge penalties or interests on repayments as this is an error made in good faith unlike other types of debt from the government.

If you received this letter from CRA stating that you need to repay the CERB amount you received but you are unable to repay in full amount immediately, you may need to contact CRA to discuss possible repayment options that you can sustain.

Contact CRA and discuss your payment arrangements with one of their representatives at 1-800-959-8281 (9 AM-5 PM – local time).

How Does CRA Collect Debt?

CRA Collect Debt

Unlike other creditors, Canada Revenue Agency is a powerful and forceful creditor that can quickly take immediate actions to collect unpaid debts.

  • Wage garnishment.
  • Tax Refund can be put on hold.
  • Freezing of bank accounts.
  • Possession or seizure of properties.

Frequently Asked Questions

A Debt Consolidation is a negotiated debt settlement offer made between you and your creditors with the help of a Debt Relief Agency in Ontario. Some key benefits of Debt Consolidation are interest-free program, no upfront fee required, combined monthly payment into one affordable amount, no lawsuits, and many more.

Yes, your assets are safe from creditors. A licensed debt relief agency in Ontario will help you come up with an offer to your creditors that will make sure your assets will be out of the paper.

No, in fact, this is one of the great advantages of a Debt Consolidation Program. All wage garnishment will stop from the day you filed the proposal.

The effect on your credit score is not going to be severe. Your credit score will most probably go to R7 Rating and will remain in your credit report for another 3 years after you completed the program. This means that it will not be permanent and you will still be able to rebuild your credit score.

 

This varies depending on the proposal you will be discussing with the help of a certified debt relief agency. It is also worth noting that debt consolidation cannot exceed more than 5 years.

If a debt is shared, you need to file a joint debt consolidation offer to your creditors. However, in most cases, in which the debts are individually incurred will have no impact on your spouse.

After three missed payments, your debt arrangement with creditors will be broken and you will end up getting chased again for the original debt amount plus interest.

A debt consolidation offer can be paid off earlier if you can. In this way, you receive your “Certificate of Completion” sooner and you can immediately start rebuilding your credit score.
