Your next CCR payment, formerly known as the Climate Action Incentive payment, should arrive on April 15, 2024, if your taxes are electronically filed by March 15, 2024. Generally speaking, you should get your CCR payment 6–8 weeks following the assessment of your tax return if you file after March 15, 2024.
When Does the Carbon Tax Rebate Come Out
The Canada Carbon Rebate is a financial incentive provided to Canadians in provinces where the federal fuel charge applies. The federal government offers inhabitants of specific provinces the CAIP, which is tax-free money, to help them offset the expense of the federal pollution price on fossil fuels like gasoline and natural gas.Â
The entire amount collected under Canada’s carbon emission pricing scheme is given back to businesses, families, farmers, and Indigenous organizations. It is divided into a base amount and a supplement for people living in small and rural communities.
Payments for the CAIP will be directly transferred into your bank account on April 15, July 15, October 15, and January 15 of each year, if you qualify for it. The CAIP may be sent to you by letter if you haven’t set up a direct deposit with the CRA, and it might take longer.
To receive the rebate, Canadians need to file their annual tax return. For those registered for direct deposit, the rebate will be deposited directly into their bank account every three months; otherwise, it will be delivered via cheque.Â
Who is eligible to get a Carbon Tax Rebate?
To qualify for the CCR, you must first fulfill each of the following requirements at the start of the payment month:
- You were a Canadian resident in the month before the payment.
- At the beginning of the payment month, you are a resident of one of the following CCR provinces: Alberta, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Prince Edward Island, and Saskatchewan.

- You currently or formerly had a common-law partner or spouse.
- You live with your child and are or were a parent.

- Your child resides with you and is younger than 19 years old.
- You bear the primary responsibility for your child’s care and upbringing.
How much Carbon Tax Rebate can I expect in 2024?
Your family’s circumstances and the province in which you live will determine how much Canada Child Rebate (CCR) you receive. Benefit reductions based on adjusted family net income do not apply to the CCR.

A 10% base amount rural bonus is included in the CCR for people living in small and rural communities. The rural supplement will be raised to 20% of the basic amount beginning in April 2024 for the base year 2023. You can check the amounts according to your status from the official website https://www.canada.ca.
Why can’t I receive my Carbon Tax Rebate?
It could be the result of missing information on your return if you submitted your taxes but haven’t gotten your CAIP yet or if the amount is off. If you haven’t received your Canada Carbon Rebate (CCR), here are some possible reasons:
Wrong Expectations:
- The CCR is now delivered quarterly, not annually with your tax return.
- Payouts should be anticipated on April, July, October, and January 15th.
- If the 15th falls on a weekend or holiday, the payment will be made on the last business day before the 15th.
Tax Filing Errors or Omissions:
- Common reason for not receiving the rebate.
- Double-check your tax return and file an adjustment if needed.
- Ensure you’ve correctly filled out the required form(s) to claim the CCR.
Not Using Direct Deposit:
- If you receive tax refunds by direct deposit, you’ll get the CCR the same way.
- Connect direct deposit through My CRA to receive the CCR in your bank account.
Residency Requirements:
- You must be a resident of Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, Ontario, or Saskatchewan.
Family Status and Age:
- Each household may only submit one refund claim.
- Generally, the person who files as the head of the household claims it.
- You must be at least 19 years old or meet specific conditions if under 19.
