Note: The Social Security Tribunal does not process Employment Insurance initial applications. You can apply for these benefits through MyAccount on the Service Canada website.
The Social Security Tribunal does not process Canada Emergency Response Benefits (CERB) either. If you want to apply for CERB through the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA), please visit the CRA website.
If you would like more general information about CERB, call the automated help line: 1-833-966-2099
If you would like to speak to a CRA agent about CERB, call 1-800-959-8281
Note: The fastest way to send us information is by email. To avoid delays, please send us your documents in a format we can open.
We provide service in English and French.
