Child Disability Benefits (CDB)

The Child Disability Benefit (CDB) is a tax-free monthly payment provided to families who care for a child under the age of 18 with a severe and prolonged physical or mental impairment. This benefit offers vital financial assistance to help with the additional costs of raising a child with a disability.

​

Administered by the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA), the CDB is paid in addition to the Canada Child Benefit (CCB) and is designed to ease the financial strain on families supporting children with significant medical and care needs.

​

Our team is dedicated to helping families access the CDB and related support programs through a guided and personalized approach. We assist with:

​

• Eligibility Assessment – We evaluate your family’s circumstances to determine if your child meets the criteria for the Child Disability Benefit, including a valid Disability Tax Credit (DTC) approval.

​

• DTC Application Support – Since eligibility for the CDB requires an approved Disability Tax Credit for your child, we help you complete and submit Form T2201 and guide you through the entire DTC process.

​

• Benefit Estimation – We provide an estimate of the potential monthly CDB payments based on your family income and other factors, so you can plan ahead with confidence.

​

• Retroactive Claims – If your child qualified for the DTC in previous years, you may be entitled to retroactive CDB payments. We assist in identifying and claiming any missed benefits.

​

• Ongoing Support – As your child’s needs evolve, we help update your benefit records and provide support with CRA reviews, reassessments, and renewals as needed.

​

• Access to Additional Benefits: Qualifying for the CDB may also open the door to other valuable programs, such as the Registered Disability Savings Plan (RDSP), provincial disability supports, and enhanced medical expense claims.
