A B.C. family is struggling to pay for groceries and make rent payments one year after the federal government’s faulty Phoenix pay system left them without a reliable source of income.
Rubi Marin Morales was laid off in August 2016 from her public service job. She says that, due to a payroll error, she was prevented from collecting employment insurance.
To make ends meet, she and her husband, Alex Morgan, turned to a high-interest loan. But the hefty repayments have piled up and become more than the single-income family can handle.
