Canada Disability Benefit Supplemental Payment
The federal government has proposed a one-time $150 supplemental payment to help recipients of the Canada Disability Benefit (CDB) offset the cost of their disability tax credit certification or re-certification.
The measure is expected to cost $115.7 million over four years, with $81 million spent in 2026-27, the first year of implementation.
- Eligible people with a disability tax credit certificate can receive up to $2,400 a year through the CDB.
- The supplemental $150 payment would be retroactive to the CDB’s launch, which began disbursing benefit payments in July.
- Recipients can expect to receive the supplemental payment before the end of the 2026-27 fiscal year.
The budget also confirmed plans to exempt the CDB from being treated as income under the Income Tax Act.
