Federal CCB eligibility (CRA)
Same CRA rules apply in Prince Edward Island for federal CCB. Provincial top-ups have their own income tests — see the program note above.
Live with and care for a child under 18
You must be primarily responsible for the care and upbringing of an eligible child under 18 who lives with you (CRA who-can-apply).
Resident of Canada for tax purposes
You must be a resident of Canada for tax purposes, with significant residential ties (CRA).
Citizenship / status of you or your spouse
You or your spouse/common-law partner must be a Canadian citizen, permanent resident, protected person, temporary resident who lived in Canada the previous 18 months with a valid permit in the 19th month, or an individual registered/entitled under the Indian Act (CRA).
File every year
CRA determines CCB entitlement when you file your income tax and benefit return — file every year (even with nil income) so AFNI can be calculated.
CCB is tax-free
CCB payments are not taxable and do not have to be reported on your tax return (CRA how-much).
Shared custody (40%–60%)
If the child lives with you about equally (between 40% and 60%), both individuals apply and each gets 50% of what they would get with full custody based on their own AFNI (CRA).
Not included in this profile
- Québec Family Allowance dollar amounts (Retraite Québec — use their calculator).
- Child disability benefit (CDB) — up to CRA’s published maximum per DTC-eligible child; model in the CCB calculator.
- Shared-custody 50% CCB splits — hub vignette assumes primary care of both children.
- One-time or temporary top-ups not listed on the CRA provincial program pages used here.
- Partial provincial amounts where CRA only publishes a threshold without a full phase-out schedule (modeled as $0 above the published full-amount threshold — conservative).
- Municipal or employer benefits unrelated to CRA CCB administration.
