Canada's New Government Delivers on its Child Care Promise!

The Universal Child Care Benefit (UCCB), which provides parents with more choice in child care, came into effect on July 1. Beginning on July 20, 2006, Canadian parents started receiving monthly cheques for $100, for each child under six. Over 90 per cent of parents received UCCB cheques automatically as they are already enrolled in the Canada Child Tax Benefit. To find out if you are pre-registered for the UCCB, please click here.

Even if your family is not yet registered, you can apply any time and receive payments retroactively up to 11 months from your date of application.
