The federal government says technical difficulties that prevented some Canadians from applying for new financial supports have been solved.

The Canada Revenue Agency reported the issues hours after applications for the benefits opened today.

The new Canada Recovery Benefit a replacement for the Canada Emergency Response Benefit promises 500-dollars per week.

The federal government also anticipates about 700-thousand Canadians will apply for the new caregiver benefit, which offers added support for parents and others who are forced to miss work to care for a dependent due to COVID-19.
