Canadian maternity leave

Rebecca • Wife💍 Harrisons mommy 🥰 TTC baby #2

Hey ladies, if you have applied for maternity benefits through service canada, how long did it take before you started receiving your benefits? I applied October 3rd. Its November 1st and it still says my application is under review 🙄 I tried calling multiple times only told to be patient but i havent been able to make a payment on my credit card and my bank is calling me and now my husband is racking up his credit card to pay for groceries. Its effecting my credit. Im so mad.
