Silverwings Benefits is expanding to Canada with a dedicated Child Disability Benefit (CDB) application support service. Check if your child is likely to qualify below and register your interest ahead of launch.

No cost, no obligation

Checking your eligibility and registering your interest is completely free, and doesn’t commit you to anything.

What is the Child Disability Benefit?

  • A tax-free monthly benefit for families raising a child under 18 with a severe and prolonged disability.
  • Paid as an add-on to the Canada Child Benefit (CCB), on top of your regular CCB payment.
  • Requires your child to be approved for the Disability Tax Credit (DTC), certified on Form T2201.
  • Worth up to C$276.83 a month per eligible child in the 2024/25 benefit year, reduced gradually as family income rises.

Check If Your Child Is Likely to Qualify

A few quick questions about your child’s condition and your family’s situation -- no jargon, no medical terms. Takes about 3 minutes.

What the Child Disability Benefit Can Unlock

Registered Disability Savings Plan

The DTC approval behind a CDB claim also unlocks RDSP eligibility, with generous government grants and bonds.

Child care expense deduction top-up

DTC-eligible children can unlock a higher child care expense deduction limit at tax time.

Provincial disability supports

Many provinces and territories offer extra support for families of a DTC-eligible child once approved.

Not Ready Yet?

You can always apply for the Child Disability Benefit yourself directly with the CRA, for free, via canada.ca. Register your interest above and we’ll let you know the moment our dedicated CDB service is ready in Canada.
