Eligibility and payment amounts vary by program. A payment appearing on the calendar does not mean that every Canadian will receive it.

One-Time GST/HST Credit Top-Up in June 2026

Eligible recipients are scheduled to receive a one-time GST/HST credit top-up on June 5, 2026.

The special payment forms part of the transition from the GST/HST Credit to the new Canada Groceries and Essentials Benefit, which begins making regular quarterly payments in July 2026.

The top-up is equal to 50% of the recipient’s total GST/HST Credit entitlement for the July 2025 to June 2026 benefit year.

Eligible recipients generally do not need to submit a separate application. The payment is based on information from the recipient’s 2024 income tax return.

To qualify, the recipient and their spouse or common-law partner, when applicable, generally needed to file their 2024 tax returns and be entitled to the GST/HST Credit in January 2026.

The deposit may continue to appear as a GST/HST Credit payment in the recipient’s CRA account or bank statement.

Ontario Trillium Benefit Payment in June 2026

The Ontario Trillium Benefit is scheduled to be issued on June 10, 2026.

The Ontario Trillium Benefit combines up to three provincial credits:

• Ontario Energy and Property Tax Credit
• Northern Ontario Energy Credit
• Ontario Sales Tax Credit

The payment issued in June forms part of the July 2025 to June 2026 benefit period and is generally based on information from the recipient’s 2024 income tax return.

Eligible Ontario residents may receive the benefit monthly or as a single annual payment, depending on their total entitlement and the payment option that applies to them.

Some eligible residents may therefore not receive an Ontario Trillium Benefit payment every month, even when a monthly date appears on the official calendar.

Canada Disability Benefit Payment in June 2026

The Canada Disability Benefit is scheduled to be paid on June 18, 2026.

This federal income-tested benefit provides financial support to eligible working-age people with disabilities.

Receiving another disability-related benefit does not automatically guarantee eligibility. Applicants must meet the specific requirements established for the Canada Disability Benefit.

Eligibility and payment amounts may depend on:

• The recipient’s age and residency status
• Eligibility for the Disability Tax Credit
• The recipient’s income
• A spouse or common-law partner’s income
• Whether the required income tax returns have been filed
• Other information available to Service Canada

Recipients should keep their tax returns and Disability Tax Credit information up to date to reduce the risk of interrupted payments.

Canada Child Benefit Payment in June 2026

The Canada Child Benefit is scheduled to be issued on June 19, 2026.

The payment is issued before June 20 because the regular date falls on a weekend.

The CCB is a tax-free monthly payment designed to help eligible families with the cost of raising children under 18.

The amount a family receives is generally based on:

• Adjusted family net income
• The number of eligible children
• The ages of the children
• Marital or common-law status
• Shared-custody arrangements

The June 2026 payment is the final regular CCB payment calculated using information from the family’s 2024 income tax returns.

Beginning with the July 2026 payment, the CRA generally recalculates CCB entitlement using information from the family’s 2025 tax returns.

Both spouses or common-law partners should file their tax returns on time so the CRA can calculate the new benefit-year amount correctly.

Newfoundland and Labrador Disability Benefit

The Newfoundland and Labrador Disability Benefit is scheduled to be issued on June 25, 2026.

This provincial benefit provides additional financial assistance to eligible lower-income residents with disabilities.

The program is administered by the Canada Revenue Agency using information from the recipient’s income tax return and Disability Tax Credit eligibility.

The amount received may depend on the recipient’s adjusted family net income and other eligibility requirements established by the province.

CPP Payment Date for June 2026

Canada Pension Plan benefits are scheduled to be issued on June 26, 2026.

This payment date generally applies to several CPP programs, including:

• CPP retirement pension
• CPP disability benefit
• CPP survivor’s pension
• CPP children’s benefits

The amount received depends on the specific benefit and the recipient’s individual circumstances.

A CPP retirement pension is affected by factors such as contribution history, pensionable earnings and the age at which the recipient begins collecting the pension.

CPP payments are taxable income and recipients may request that income tax be deducted from their monthly payments.

OAS and GIS Payment Date for June 2026

Old Age Security benefits are also scheduled for June 26, 2026.

The payment date covers several related senior benefit programs:

• Old Age Security pension
• Guaranteed Income Supplement
• Allowance
• Allowance for the Survivor

OAS eligibility is primarily based on age and Canadian residence history. Unlike CPP, a person does not need to have worked or contributed to the Canada Pension Plan to qualify for OAS.

The Guaranteed Income Supplement provides additional income-tested support to qualifying lower-income OAS pensioners.

GIS, Allowance and Allowance for the Survivor amounts depend on income and family circumstances.

June is the final month of the July 2025 to June 2026 GIS benefit period. Amounts beginning in July 2026 are generally recalculated using income reported on 2025 tax returns.

Recipients and their spouses or common-law partners should file their returns on time to avoid delayed or interrupted payments.

Veteran Disability Pension Payment

The Veteran Disability Pension is scheduled for June 29, 2026.

Veterans Affairs Canada administers disability benefits for eligible veterans, Canadian Armed Forces members, current or former RCMP members and certain qualifying survivors or dependants.

Payment amounts depend on factors such as the recipient’s approved condition, assessed level of disability, family circumstances and the specific benefit program.

Veterans whose service-related condition has worsened may be able to request a reassessment supported by updated medical evidence.

Benefits Not Regularly Scheduled for June 2026

Not every Canadian benefit is paid monthly. Several major programs do not have a standard recurring payment scheduled during June 2026.

Regular GST/HST Credit Payment

There is no normal quarterly GST/HST Credit payment scheduled for June 2026.

However, eligible recipients may receive the special one-time GST/HST Credit top-up on June 5, 2026.

The first regular Canada Groceries and Essentials Benefit quarterly payment is scheduled for July 3, 2026.

Alberta Child and Family Benefit

The Alberta Child and Family Benefit is not regularly paid in June.

This benefit is issued quarterly. The previous payment was scheduled for May 27, 2026, and the next payment is scheduled for August 27, 2026.

Advanced Canada Workers Benefit

The Advanced Canada Workers Benefit does not have a regular payment scheduled for June 2026.

The next scheduled ACWB instalment is July 10, 2026.

Employment Insurance

Employment Insurance does not use one universal monthly payment date.

Eligible claimants generally receive payments according to their individual claim and reporting schedule. The exact arrival date can therefore differ from one claimant to another.

Canadian Dental Care Plan

The Canadian Dental Care Plan does not normally issue a fixed monthly cash payment directly to members.

Instead, eligible oral health services are covered according to the plan’s rules, and participating providers submit claims for covered treatment.

Why June Is an Important Benefit Month

June marks the end of the benefit year for several income-tested programs administered by the CRA and Service Canada.

Programs that may be recalculated beginning in July include:

• Canada Child Benefit
• Ontario Trillium Benefit
• Guaranteed Income Supplement
• Allowance
• Allowance for the Survivor
• Canada Disability Benefit
• Canada Groceries and Essentials Benefit

Filing the 2025 income tax return on time is especially important because government departments may use that information to determine eligibility and payment amounts for the new benefit period beginning in July 2026.

How June Benefit Payments Are Delivered

Most federal and CRA-administered benefit payments can be delivered through direct deposit or by mailed cheque.

Direct Deposit

Direct deposit sends the payment electronically to the bank account registered with the CRA, Service Canada or the government department administering the benefit.

It is generally the fastest and most reliable way to receive government payments.

Recipients should keep their banking details current and avoid closing an old account until they have confirmed that government deposits have been redirected successfully.

Mailed Cheques

Recipients who are not registered for direct deposit may receive a cheque through the mail.

Delivery may take longer than an electronic deposit and can be affected by weekends, holidays, postal delays or an outdated mailing address.

Why Your Benefit Payment May Change

Government benefit amounts can change when a department recalculates eligibility or receives updated personal and financial information.

Common reasons for a different payment amount include:

• A newly processed income tax return
• A change in individual or family income
• A change in marital or common-law status
• The birth of a child
• A child turning 18
• A change in custody arrangements
• A change in residency status
• A previous overpayment or underpayment
• A pension adjustment based on inflation
• A new annual benefit-period calculation
• A reassessment of program eligibility

Recipients should review official notices and online account messages when an expected payment amount changes.

What to Do if Your June Payment Is Missing

A government payment may not appear immediately at the beginning of the scheduled payment date. Financial institutions can process deposits at different times.

If an expected payment has not arrived:

1. Confirm that you remain eligible for the benefit.
2. Check the official payment date for the correct program.
3. Review your CRA account or My Service Canada Account.
4. Confirm that your banking and mailing information is correct.
5. Check whether the government requested additional documents.
6. Review any recent reassessment or eligibility notice.
7. Allow the recommended processing period before contacting the responsible department.

For the Canada Child Benefit and Alberta Child and Family Benefit, the CRA generally advises waiting five working days after the payment date before contacting the agency.

For programs such as the Ontario Trillium Benefit and Newfoundland and Labrador Disability Benefit, recipients may be advised to wait up to 10 working days.
