The Workforce Expansion Self-Employment Benefit Program helps unemployed individuals create a job for themselves by starting a new business. The program provides various types of support during the initial development phase of the business including financial assistance, coaching and ongoing technical advice. Coaching is tailored to meet individual needs and can include subjects such as business plan development, accounting, and marketing. Under the Self-Employment Benefit Program, if you are receiving or are eligible to receive Employment Insurance benefits, you will continue to receive these benefits until your claim ends. At that time, you will receive support at a provincially established rate for the duration of time remaining on the program. If you are approved for the Self-Employment Benefit Program but not receiving Employment Insurance benefits, you will receive a weekly allowance at a provincially established rate. The Self-Employment Benefit Coordinator in your area can provide you with additional information on what other support may be available to you.

Una subvención no es reembolsable: una vez aprobada, los fondos no deben devolverse, aunque la mayoría de los organismos exigen informes de avance o finales.

Los programas provinciales como este suelen exigir que el solicitante esté registrado y opere en Nuevo Brunswick, y a menudo se acumulan con programas federales como SR&ED y NRC IRAP.
