Québec Parental Insurance Plan

Evolving with today’s parents!

I’m a self-employed worker and would like my benefit period to begin January 6, 2019. What insurable earnings will be considered when establishing my eligibility and the amount of my benefits?

If your benefit period begins on or after Sunday, January 6, 2019, your insurable earnings for 2018 are taken into consideration, that is, your net business income (profit or loss) and your employment income (salary), as the case may be, in 2018.

If your benefit period begins on a Sunday in 2018 (including December 31, 2018), your insurable earnings for 2017 are taken into consideration, that is, your net business income (profit or loss) and your employment income (salary), as the case may be, in 2017.
