Dear Member,
It’s a difficult time and we can all use extra financial help.
Ontario government is currently offering up to $1000.00 relief on PPE and also help on property tax, energy spending, and Federal rent relief.
Go to this website https://www.app.grants.gov.on.ca/msrf and apply.
You will need :
• At least 2 employees.
• Business name.
• Business number.
• Picture of your business storefront(Size of a picture must be smaller than 3M)
• PPE purchase receipts.
• Copy of your property tax bill showing roll number（ which you might have to get from your landlord）
• Owners of the property name address and telephone number.
• Last property maintenance invoice if you are a tenant.
• Copy of your lease.
• Copy of your blank check.
• Copy of your energy bills.
The federal government rent subsidy portal is (finally) open as well!
https://www.canada.ca/en/revenue-agency/services/subsidy/emergency-rent-subsidy.html
• Canadian businesses, non-profit organizations, or charities who have seen a drop in revenue due to the COVID-19 pandemic may be eligible for a subsidy to cover part of their commercial rent or property expenses, starting on September 27, 2020, until June 2021.
• This subsidy will provide payments directly to qualifying renters and property owners, without requiring the participation of landlords.
• If you are eligible for the base subsidy, you may also be eligible for lockdown support if your business location is significantly affected by a public health order for a week or more.
Act quickly before the fund runs out. It’s a lot to put in but it might be worth the effort.
Hopefully, this gives you a heads up if you need any assistance please contact myself or Lesley Weeks, good luck and may you all get the money you are so rightfully deserve.
Good luck to you all and stay safe,
Eggie Feng
