    Yeah, you got it right. Not in love with the phrasing of the reapplication Q. Here’s how CRA words it. Never hurts to use the government language verbatim.

    • You are applying for the first time
      For at least 14 days in a row during the 4-week payment period, you do not expect to receive more than $1,000 (before taxes) from employment and self-employment income
    • You are re-applying for another period
      You do not expect your situation to change during this 4-week period and you do not expect to receive more than $1,000 (before taxes) from employment and self-employment income
