CECRA September Extension Details

Over the last few days, the CECRA website has been updated to provide more information on the extension through to September. it notes:

  • For the July, August and September extensions:

    Those who qualified for CECRA for small businesses based on existing program parameters will automatically be eligible for the additional 1, 2 or 3 months without reassessing whether they continue to have a 70% revenue decline in July and August. Participation in the 1 or 2-month extension is voluntary. Both existing applicants to CECRA for small businesses and new applicants will be able to apply for the July, August and September rent reduction.

  • If the tenant has committed to entering into a new lease to continue to operate its business at a new location, the tenant must provide the program administrator with a copy of the signed lease. The tenant may be eligible for the CECRA for small businesses on an exceptional basis.
