The Canada Child Benefit Increase and Audit Risk

Families receiving the Canada Child Benefit (CCB) may have noticed an increase in their recent payments. Indexing takes place each July 1. Beginning in July of 2026, the CCB will provide families up to $8,157 per child under the age of 6 and up to $6,883 per child aged 6 to 17. There is audit risk that comes with that, however.

The Canada Child Benefit (CCB) and Goods and Services/Harmonized Sales Tax Credit (GSTC) are both calculated based on net family income from the prior tax year.
