The quarterly climate action tax credit with payments is expected to arrive in bank accounts on or around this Friday, January 3.
Approximately 65% of families and individuals will benefit from the top up.
The average annual credit is an estimated $440 for individuals with no dependent children and $680 for single-parent families and $613 for multi-parent families.
Then around January 20, more than 340,000 families with lower or middle incomes will receive a BC Family Benefit payment -- now with a temporary cost-of-living bonus.
The 25% increase means an average of $445 more. A family of four can receive just over $3500 annually, while a single parent with one child can receive as much as $2688 per year.
