Canada Recovery Caregiving Benefit (CRCB)
Weeks you can apply for
On this page
How eligibility periods work
Each Canada Recovery Caregiving Benefit (CRCB) eligibility period is a specific 1-week period. When you apply, your household will receive a $500 ($450 after taxes withheld) payment for that period.
The CRCB does not renew automatically. If your situation continues, you must apply for each period separately. You may apply for any eligible 1-week period for up to 60 days after that period has ended.
Each household can apply up to a maximum of 44 periods between September 27, 2020 and May 7, 2022.
The 44 weeks do not need to be taken consecutively.
If you started caring for a family member part way through a period, you can only apply for that period if you missed more than 50% of that work week. If you miss less than that, you need to wait to apply for the next eligibility period.
Period start and end dates
Each 1-week period starts on a Sunday and ends on the following Saturday. You may start applying on the first Monday after the 1-week period you're applying for has ended.

Household eligibility ends after 44 periods
The benefit is available between September 27, 2020 and May 7, 2022.
You can no longer receive CRCB payments after your household has reached the maximum of 44 periods.
Your eligibility cannot be extended, even if you need to care for the same or other family members for more than 44 weeks or if their school, regular program or facility is closed or unavailable to them again due to COVID-19.
To confirm the number of periods that you have already received the CRCB, you can review your application history in CRA My Account, under “COVID-19 Support Payment Application Details”.
