Hi all,
Just want to confirm if we can apply for CERB while on H&C
It depends. If you have first stage approval in H&C and have a work permit, were working in Canada and then lost that job due to COVID-19 - then yes.

If you have no work permit or never worked in Canada / didn't lose your job in Canada due to COVID-19 - then no.

Thanks for the feedback, please confirm what you mean by first stage approval? waiting on Biometrics.

You would know if you had first stage approval in your H&C application. If you're not sure what this is, then you haven't reached that stage of application processing yet. First stage approval typically takes 1.5 to 2 years to receive.

Do you hold a work permit?

What do you mean by "confirmation"?

Did you apply to extend your work permit before your work permit expired?

The timeline is extremely fast. Are you sure you aren't talking about your spousal sponsorship?

Hello,
I hired lawyer from the beginning and he told me that he was even receiving AIP in 5 months when I was complaining about what would happen if I got my prra decision come in 4-6 months.
As I said earlier the officer made his decision on March 24.
And I have applied on the ground of best interest of child and unsafe to go back to home country and he accept the second senario.
As I said I have another inland spousal sponsorship appn aug 27. And haven't heard anything yet. Do you guys know they will cross check my AIP or should I notify them?
Since all August applicants are getting DM and PR I am on time line.
