If you missed the deadline for a claim period, you may now ask the CRA to review your late request to apply for the subsidy (or increase your previously claimed subsidy amount) under certain circumstances. You have a limited time to send a late request, and you must contact the CRA first to see if you qualify.
Note that for the remainder of the qualifying periods, the application deadline is 180 days from the final day of the qualifying period.
The application deadlines for each announced qualifying period is outlined below:
