Benefit payment dates
Beware of false information online
There is disinformation online that the Government of Canada is issuing a new financial relief payment of $2,000 by direct deposit. There is no new financial relief payment. To avoid disinformation about government benefits or payments, refer to official Government of Canada web pages and your provincial or territorial government’s official web pages. Go to the recognize a scam page for more details and examples of online disinformation and scams.
