You can check the below criteria if you are eligible or not for worker benefits.

 

You’re eligible for the CWB if you:

  • Earned a working income of at least $3,000
  • Lived in Canada throughout the year
  • Were 19 or older at the end of the year, or lived with your spouse/common-law partner or your child

You’re not eligible for the CWB if you were:

  • A full-time student for more than 13 weeks in the year unless, at the end of the year, you had an eligible dependant
  • In prison for 90 days or more
  • A tax-exempt foreign diplomat, or the tax-exempt relative or employee of one

For more detail, please refer to this CRA link: https://www.canada.ca/en/revenue-agency/services/child-family-benefits/witb-eligibility.html
