Nova Scotia Child Benefit

The Nova Scotia Child Benefit is a tax-free monthly payment to help low- and modest-income families with the costs of raising their children. Benefits from this program are delivered together with the Canada Child Tax Benefit in a single monthly payment.

You do not have to apply separately to receive payments under this program. We will use the information from your Canada Child Tax Benefit application to determine your eligibility for the program. You (and your spouse) should file your 1998 return(s) as soon as possible. The information you (and your spouse) give on your return(s) will determine how much you will get starting in July 1999.

The program is fully funded by the Province of Nova Scotia. For more information, call 1-800-387-1193.
