Families that are entitled to receive the CCB for April 2020 and still have an eligible child in their care in May 2020 will get up to $300 extra per child as part of their regular May 2020 payment.
The amount you receive will be calculated based on information from the 2018 tax return(s) of you and your spouse/common-law partner (if applicable). If you are a newcomer to Canada from January 1, 2019 to April 30, 2020, you and your spouse's/common-law partner's (if applicable) reported world income will be used in the calculation.
This is a one-time increase to the May CCB payment for the 2019-20 benefit year (July 2019 to June 2020).
