Money is on its way to eligible Canadian families who will receive another monthly payment of the child tax benefit this week. The eighth instalment of the Canada Child Benefit (CCB) will be deposited on Wednesday, Aug. 20. The child tax payment increased in July, marking the beginning of the new benefit year. You can check if your family is eligible for Canada's child tax benefit by taking the government's eligibility test. You can also plan ahead and see government benefit payment dates for September.
