How much you may get

Due to the Canada Post postal disruption, mail delivery is currently limited. Cheques issued for the Canada Carbon Rebate for Small Businesses will only be delivered once the disruption has ended. There will be no delay for corporations who are receiving a payment through direct deposit.

We are closely monitoring this situation. Please check our website for regular updates at Canada Post mail service disruption – Impact on CRA services.

As an eligible CCPC, your total rebate amount will be equal to the number of employees you had in the designated provinces between 2019 and 2023 inclusively, multiplied by a payment rate for each of those provinces and years.

Eligible years
Years included in the retroactive payment

Your rebate is a single amount that includes all past years you were eligible for.

The years correspond to the calendar year in which a fuel charge year begins. A fuel charge year runs from April 1 to March 31. It is the period of time the federal government sets fuel charge rates for certain backstop provinces on a variety of fuels. Data is collected from the fuel charge year period to determine applicable rates for carbon rebates under various programs.

How employees are considered and counted

For the purposes of this rebate, an employee means a person who was both:

  • Employed by your corporation at any time in the calendar year
  • Issued a T4 statement of remuneration paid by your company

There is no distinction made between full-time, part-time, or seasonal employees.

An employee's province of employment is the province or territory their T4 slip was issued for that year (box 10).

If you issued more than one T4 slip for an employee in different provinces or territories in the same year, include them only once, in the province or territory which their remuneration (box 14) was highest.

For more information on how a province of employment is determined, refer to: Determine the province of employment.
