In a few cases, some Canadians who received CERB through Service Canada will need to apply for EI benefits. Canadians who are EI eligible and who received CERB through the CRA but continue to be eligible for financial assistance once the 28 weeks of CERB has been used up will need to apply for EI benefits.
If you earn money while receiving EI benefits, you can keep 50 cents of your benefits for every dollar you earn, up to 90 percent of your previous weekly earnings (roughly four and a half days of work). Above this cap, your EI benefits are deducted dollar-for-dollar.
