The Canada Learning Bond is available to children who meet specific criteria outlined by the Canada Education Savings Program. Check out Canlearn.ca to find out who qualifies for the bond.

How Much Money Could I Get from the Canada Learning Bond?

The Government of Canada will make a one-time payment of $500 into the RESP of children who qualify for the Canada Learning Bond and a $100 deposit each subsequent year the child’s primary caregiver receives the National Child Benefit Supplement, to a maximum of $2,000.
