How to use this calendar
Pair payment dates with your household action plan so nothing is missed after the quiz or a caseworker visit.
- After the benefits quiz, check dates for programs on your results page. Federal CCB, GST/HST credit, and OAS/GIS use recurring schedules listed here.
- Use Add to calendar on any row to save a reminder on your phone or computer. Official program pages remain the source of truth if a date shifts.
- Provincial and territorial payment dates may appear when we model them. Confirm with your province if a cheque is late or a new benefit starts mid-year.
- Settlement workers often print quiz handouts plus this calendar for follow-up visits. See For settlement workers for a 20-minute appointment workflow.
