I know that receiving CERB changed some people's eligibility for the guaranteed income supplement.

I am therefore wondering whether there isn't something similar here.

Families had higher income because it included CERB payments. Those families ended up with overpayments of the Canada child benefit because they were not entitled to the same level of support from the Canada child benefit.

Are the CERB payments not the cause of that overpayment and the current debt recovery?
