Canada Emergency Student Benefit (CESB)

[Dr2233]

Hi, I'm a part-time student in a postgraduate program. According to the requirement, I eligible for the Canada Emergency Student Benefit (CESB). I'm just worried about the impact on my family sponsorship. Does applying for the CESB affect my sponsor eligibility (financially) in any way? Thank you!

According to CIC website It wont affect because It is not Social Assistance.

You mentioned that you are only a part-time student. Are you working?
