Eligible Canadians can anticipate a number of government benefit payments hitting their bank accounts throughout the rest of the week.

Below is a list of the benefits rolling out over the coming days.

The Canadian Pension Plan (CPP) is a monthly, taxable benefit that replaces part of eligible Canadians’ income when they retire and is paid for the rest of their lives.

Eligible Canadians can expect their latest payment to hit their bank accounts on May 27.

The payable balance Canadians can receive depends on when you decided to start your pension, the amount you contributed, how much you earned throughout your working life, and how long you contributed to the CPP.

According to the government website, as of January, the maximum payable balance for those aged 65 is $1,507.65 a month.

For new beneficiaries (April to June 2026) at the same age, the average payable balance is $925.35 a month.
