Alberta's evacuation payment is meant to ease the costs of being away from your primary home due to an evacuation order during a disaster. It is one-time funding to help pay for immediate housing needs and day-to-day purchases such as groceries, gas, and more. It is not intended as income replacement.
Albertans who qualify will receive:
$1250 for each adult age 18 and older when the evacuation order was given
$500 for each dependent child under 18 when the evacuation order was given
Residents can refer to Emergency updates for the most current information, including dates when mandatory evacuation orders were issued. This can be found under the "Communities under evacuation" section.
