Starting June 20, 2025, you can apply for the new Canada Disability Benefit (CDB).

The CDB is a new monthly payment from the Government of Canada. It is meant to help reduce poverty for working aged people with disabilities who have low incomes.

While the benefit amount may not be enough for everyone, it can still help with some basic needs. We encourage everyone who is eligible to apply. We are also working hard to get the government to increase the amount.
