The Canada Child Benefit is going up!
July 20, 2020

The Canada Child Benefit, a tax-free payment, gives more money to those families that need it the most, and as of 2018, has resulted in over 300,000 Canadian children being lifted out of poverty.

Today, the CCB will be increased again for the 2020–21 benefit year to keep pace with the increased cost of raising children. That means families with children under the age of 6 can receive a maximum benefit of $6,765, and $5,708 for children between 6 and 17. This is on top of the one-time additional $300 per child that parents received with their May payment as part of our COVID-19 Economic Response Plan.

The CCB has put more money in the pockets in 9 out of 10 Canadian families, because we know how expensive raising a child can be. Today’s increase is just one of the many ways we’re helping families get ahead.
