MP Cheryl Gallant is advising constituents not to be conned by an email offering assistance to help federal clients transition from the CERB benefit to the new Recovery Benefit.
Gallant says the offer originates with a private tax preparation firm that could charge you up to 33% of your government benefit for their “services.”
If you have any questions regarding federal government programs, her office staff will help you at no charge.
The MP says the Canada Revenue Agency has confirmed they have not sent out any notices to anyone who has received CERB assistance.
