thestar.com (09.04.2020) Since the Canada Emergency Response Benefit application process went live last Monday, many have remarked how easy it is to get approved. Every person who applies for the CERB will be automatically approved, whether they qualify or not. The application takes minutes and those who set up direct deposit will receive funds within a few days. The catch is that if it is later determined the applicant was not eligible, they will have to repay the funds when taxes for 2020 are due next spring.
