The Yukon Child Benefit is a non-taxable amount paid monthly to help low- and modest-income families with the cost of raising children under 18 years of age. This amount is combined with the CCB into a single monthly payment.

The Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) will use the information from your Canada child benefits (CCB) application to determine your eligibility for these programs.

If you are eligible, the amount of your payments will be calculated based on information from the tax returns that you and your spouse or common-law partner file.

If you share the custody of a child, you will get 50% of the provincial payment that you would have received if the child lived with you all of the time.
