$619 Monthly CCB Payment Starts in July 2025: Once again, the Canadian government is winning the hearts of families by continuing its support through the Canada Child Benefit (CCB). In July 2025, eligible families are set to receive up to $619 per child directly in their bank accounts. This tax-free monthly support has become a lifeline for parents struggling with rising expenses. With inflation affecting everything from groceries to school supplies, this payment offers real help where it matters most.
Updated benefit amounts
Starting July 19, 2025, families will receive increased amounts under the CCB program. The payment is $619 per child under 6 and $522 per child aged 6 to 17. These new rates reflect adjustments made to keep up with rising living costs. The Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) is working to make sure that low- and middle-income families get enough support to handle daily child-related expenses.
Monthly payment schedule
The CRA has already announced the full CCB payment calendar for the rest of 2025. Payments are mostly sent around the 20th of each month. For July, the payment will be made on July 19, 2025. Future dates include August 20, September 20, October 18, November 20, and December 19. These dates apply across Canada, but bank deposit timings may vary based on your financial institution.
Who can receive the payment
To qualify for the CCB in 2025, certain conditions must be met. You must live with the child and be their main caregiver. Both you and your partner (if any) should be Canadian residents for tax purposes. Also, your 2024 tax return must be filed. Families with income below $34,863 usually qualify for the full amount. Above that income, the benefit is gradually reduced depending on how much you earn.
How CRA calculates your benefit
The amount of CCB you receive depends on how many children you have, their ages, and your Adjusted Family Net Income (AFNI). For example, a family with two children under age 6 and income of $32,000 may get around $1,238 per month. As your income goes higher, the CRA reduces the monthly benefit based on a tiered system. This helps target the support to those who need it most.
Make sure you get full benefit
To avoid missing any payment, take a few simple steps. First, file your 2024 tax return on time. Also, make sure your CRA My Account has your latest bank info, address, and personal details. If there are changes in your marital status or custody, report them quickly. You can also use the CRA’s online CCB calculator to check your expected payment.
What to do if payment doesn’t arrive
If your July 2025 CCB payment doesn’t show up on time, wait at least five business days after July 19. Then log into your CRA account and check the status of your payment. Also confirm your banking and mailing details. If there’s still no update, contact CRA directly. Most delays happen due to outdated information or technical issues in payment processing.
Why this benefit matters
The Canada Child Benefit continues to be a major support system for families. With high prices for rent, food, and childcare, this program offers real monthly help. It is especially important for single parents, low-income families, and those with multiple kids. Since it’s tax-free, every dollar you receive can be used without worrying about losing a portion to taxes.
