Sounds like you are receiving employment income, so not eligible?

What if I'm still working full-time, full wages, and so is my significant other, but my 5 year old daughter hasn't had income since Christmas cards from grandparents... Can she still claim?

Yeah, the rules state either you're making money or no money. "Making less than usual" = "making money"

Did she earn over 5,000 last year?

It will definitely help. I've seen business owners talk about simply not paying themselves for that period, even though the corporation still brings in revenue. I can't see how that's allowed to qualify.

If the corporation which is continuing to bring in revenue consists of one employee (hell even two employees with the wife acting as a 'bookkeeper'), that is seriously greasy.

what if your still employed, but wages got 20% down...is this eligible??

Explains why some people hire accountants to file a single T4’d income I guess?

I believe that is their setup. Even well known people like Crackmacs posted on Twitter that they applied for it, but still post thanks for "cash donations". Isn't that income too?

Audits next year will be fun.

People who abuse this deserve annual audits for the next decade.

Eligible for what exactly? CERB is supposed to supplement your wage decrease?

[killramos]

If my bonus was less than I would prefer can I apply for CERB?

/s

[Nufy]

I was kinda joking...

But I am sure that both I as a corporation and me as an employee will be paying for this for years to come.

Hi all, long time no see, but I come with questions as it seemingly impossible to find much information on EI.

I filled out my first reporting period for the end of March. During that reporting period I was paid my last pay cheque as well as a "bonus". Both were reported on my ROE. I do not need to report those earnings again, do I?

I believe donations are considered to be income.

I haven't filed our taxes yet, so maybe she did...

Receiving income during an EI period needs to be reported. You're allowed to make some money while on EI, half of it gets deducted from your EI provided contribution.

I would encourage you to call EI and be certain since my answer is likely to be unpopular.
