BC Family Benefit 2025 – Up to $2,100 Per Child for Eligible Families

As of July 2025, the BC Family Benefit continues to support families with children by providing monthly tax-free payments. Administered by the provincial government of British Columbia, this benefit offers up to $2,100 per child annually for eligible households.

The amount you receive depends on your household income, number of children, and age of each child. If you’re already receiving the Canada Child Benefit (CCB), you’re likely to receive the BC Family Benefit automatically. Here’s what you need to know to maximize your payment in 2025.

British Columbia families may receive up to $2,100 per child through the BC Family Benefit in 2025. See who qualifies and how much you could receive.
