As summer season approaches its departure with families preparing for back to school rush in Canada, the government is offering timely financial relief by dispersing the Canada Child Benefit (CCB) payments on August 20, 2025, across the nation, helping them to offset the rising costs of healthcare, school essentials, and everyday living.
For the benefit year 2025-26, the CCB has been increased by 2.7%, ensuring families get stronger support against inflation.
