Provides a "child-rearing" provision to increase Canada Pension Plan (CPP) benefits for eligible individuals who stopped working or received lower earnings to raise their children.
If deemed eligible, the child-rearing period will be excluded from the contributory period when calculating an individual's CPP benefit amount, ensuring that the highest payment possible is received. The child-rearing provision could also help meet the eligibility requirements for a CPP Disability Benefit, if needed.
Please note: The primary caregiver is the person who was most responsible for the day-to-day needs of the children for the specified periods.
