2024 Canada Child Benefit Extra Payment: What to Expect?
Canada Child Benefit Extra Payment
The CCB program, introduced in 2016 to replace UCCB, aims to offer increased benefits to lower-income families. Providing monthly tax-free payments, CCB assists with living costs and child development. This year, families can expect extra payments in November and December, usually distributed on the 20th and 13th of the respective months. If beneficiaries encounter delays, they should wait for up to five working days.
CCB Extra Payment Coming for 2024?
The CCB is a social assistance program accessible across all Canadian provinces. Authorized by the CRA, it grants citizens benefits ranging from 522 CAD to 619 CAD, varying based on age criteria and individual needs.
In 2024, kids aged 1 to 6 will receive 522 CAD monthly from the CCB, while those between 7 and 18 will get 619 CAD. These fixed rates, set by the federal government, remain unchanged in terms of pricing and benefit criteria.
