Formula Used
The CCB payment amount is calculated based on the number of eligible children and the family's income level. The formula used is:
CCB Payment = Base Amount × Number of Eligible Children × Income Multiplier
Where:
- Base Amount = $645 per child per month (2023 rate)
- Number of Eligible Children = Number of children meeting eligibility criteria
- Income Multiplier = Based on family income level (100% for low-income families, decreasing for higher-income families)
The actual CCB payment may vary based on your specific circumstances and changes in government policies.
Worked Example
Let's calculate the estimated CCB payment for a family with two eligible children and a family income of $50,000 per year.
- Number of eligible children: 2
- Family income: $50,000 (which qualifies for the full CCB payment)
- Base amount per child: $645
- Income multiplier: 1.0 (full payment for this income level)
Calculation:
CCB Payment = $645 × 2 × 1.0 = $1,290 per month
This family would receive an estimated monthly CCB payment of $1,290.
