Hi,
I've been reading abt child care benefits in this forum. Could anyone plz let me know what is "Child Care Benefit"? & Who all are eligible? I'll be landing in canada shortly. I've two kids(one is 4 years n other 2 1/2 years). Anyone on this forum who is getting this benefit, plz put some light.
To be eligible, you must meet all the following conditions:
you must live with the child, and the child must be under the age of 18;
you must be primarily responsible for the care and upbringing of the child;
you must be a resident of Canada; and
you or your spouse or common-law partner must be a Canadian citizen, a permanent resident, a protected person, or a temporary resident who has lived in Canada for the previous 18 months, and who has a valid permit in the 19th month.
