    Apply, all they will say is no.

    note she first has to apply for UI benefits (which will be denied since she hasn't worked at a job that paid UI premiums but that's okay).

    It never hurts to apply: if she doesn't qualify, they will let her know. If she does, then you get the financial assistance you need & deserve. So, just do it!

    You have been diagnosed with COVID-19 or have symptoms of it and are trying to get diagnosed 

    A member of your household has been diagnosed with COVID-19 

    You are providing care for someone diagnosed with COVID-19

    You are quarantined or have been advised by a healthcare provider to self-quarantine 

    You were scheduled to start a job and no longer have the job or can't reach the job due to COVID-19 

    You have become the primary earner for a household because the head of household died as a direct result of COVID-19

    No.

    To receive unemployment you have to have been earning an income and lost that income (or a part of it) due to covid-19
