To what extent do newcomers receive the Canada child benefit? : insights from newly landed immigrants with employment income in Canada / by Tahsin Mehdi, Ying Gai, Ping Ching Winnie Chan, René Morissette,... : CS36-28-0001/2024-7-4E-PDF
"This study assesses the degree to which immigrant couples who landed in Canada with young children from 2016 to 2019 received the Canada child benefit (CCB) in the year following landing. The study shows that newly landed permanent resident couples with some employment income in the year following landing were much more likely than other permanent resident couples to receive the CCB that year. Newly landed couples without employment income but with a T1 income tax form filed by a spouse were less likely to receive the CCB than their counterparts with employment income, but their CCB take-up rate was markedly higher than that of couples with no T1 or T4 records. Compositional effects do not explain these differences. The study also shows that if non-recipient families with no employment income had received the CCB, their low-income rates would have fallen by 1 to 2 percentage points, from a baseline rate of 61%"--Abstract, page 1.
