I don't get it. None of the one time payment checks here in Canada were ever any larger than that either. These were one time bonuses not the main relief measure Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, the $600 is all we are getting. This bill also ups the unemployment sum too, but I don't recall what that amount actually was. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't get it. None of the one time payment checks here in Canada were ever any larger than that either. These were one time bonuses not the main relief measure The $600 is the most immediate impact for most Americans and many of us were hoping it would end up being $2000. Obviously the extra money for small businesses and for state governments will have an impact on the overall economy but it’ll obviously be longer for most Americans to see those impacts.

SharkmanthaC 115,077 Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 The House will introduce a bill to increase the $600 payments to $2000 tomorrow. It will most likely pass the House, but passing the Senate is questionable. she/her/hers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I don't get why the $600 is looked down so much on Or is it cuz most ppl don't qualify for EI? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
