The Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) is inviting you to a free, virtual and interactive question and answer session for business owners, charities and non-profit organizations about the Canada Emergency Rent Subsidy (CERS).
The rent subsidy supports businesses, charities, and non-profits that have suffered a revenue drop by providing support up to a maximum of 65% of eligible expenses. Qualifying organizations that are under a lockdown or have significantly limited activities due to a public health order will have access to Lockdown Support, a top-up subsidy of 25%, meaning that they could receive rent or property expenses support of up to 90%.
The Q&A sessions—which will take place via teleconference—are a great way for you to ask questions and learn more about the recently introduced subsidy.
The CRA has three dates available to you:
