The CCB Maximum Is Now $8,157 — and Why Your October 20 Payment Might Be Smaller
The Canada Child Benefit maximum is $8,157 per child under 6 and $6,883 per child aged 6 to 17 for July 2026 to June 2027, and the next payment lands October 20. An unfiled 2025 return — yours or your spouse’s — stops the money entirely.
