Ontario COVID-19 Child Benefit

Starting today, our government will begin automatically providing payments to parents through the #Ontario COVID-19 Child Benefit. The program provides:

🔷$400 for each child aged 0-Grade 12.
🔷$500 for each child and youth aged 0-21 with special education needs

Anybody who has already received payment through the Support of Learners in 2020 will not need to re-apply and will automatically receive the payments through the new Ontario COVID-19 Child Benefit.

Anyone who did not apply for the Support for Learners funding can apply for the Ontario COVID-19 Child Benefit beginning May 3 with a closing date of May 17.
