Families will receive the latest installment of the Canada Child Benefit payment on April 19, as part of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government’s design to redistribute wealth to lower-income families.

Canada Child Benefit (CCB) payments are paid monthly to families with children under the age of 18, and the amount paid is based on family income. Payment amounts are adjusted each July for the next year and are based on the most recent tax returns of the parents.
