If you receive the Canada Workers Benefit (CWB), you’ll notice a change to this federal tax credit as of this week, namely that you’ll get the money sooner. In the past, CWB recipients claimed the benefit for a certain year when filing their income tax return—for example, claiming the CWB for 2021 when filing a tax return in early 2022. The Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) would then assess the taxpayer’s eligibility for the benefit. 

The CRA is now taking a different approach: It will make three advance payments—the first one on July 28, 2023—to anyone who received the CWB in 2022, no application needed. Together, these quarterly payments, called the Advanced Canada Workers Benefit (ACWB), will equal 50% of the CWB amount eligible Canadians received based on their income for the 2022 tax year.
