EDMONTON AB- Emergency isolation support is now available for Albertans who have lost income due to needing to self-isolate or care for someone in self-isolation.
According to the province, those who are eligible for aid include those who have been diagnosed with COVID-19, people who are caring for a dependent that is self-isolating, and those who have been directed by health authorities to self isolate. Individuals who are not receiving compensation from any other source, also qualify for the funds.
The application is available at Alberta.ca
“Once their eligibility has been confirmed, Albertans will be asked to create a verified MyAlberta Digital ID, which is required to complete the application. As part of the verification process, information from the applicant’s Alberta driver’s licence or ID card is used to confirm their identity by matching the information on the card to the government’s motor vehicles database. Once their identity is confirmed, Albertans can complete the emergency isolation support application,” the province said in a news release.
