Eligible Canadians with disabilities are set to receive another Canada Disability Benefit payment this month.

The payment is scheduled for Thursday, Nov. 19, according to the government’s benefit payment calendar. Payments are generally issued on the third Thursday of each month.

The benefit provides monthly financial support to working-age Canadians with disabilities and is administered by Service Canada.

Here’s what you need to know about the November payment, eligibility requirements and how to apply.

The maximum payment for the July 2026 to June 2027 benefit period is $204.20 per month, up from $200 during the previous benefit year.

The amount a person receives depends on their adjusted family net income and other factors, meaning not everyone qualifies for the maximum. The benefit is adjusted annually for inflation, with payments for the current benefit period calculated using income reported on 2025 federal tax returns.

The federal government also offers an online Canada Disability Benefit estimator to help applicants determine how much they could receive.

Applicants generally must be between 18 and 64 years old, have been approved for the Disability Tax Credit and be Canadians residents for income tax purposes.

They must also have filed their 2025 federal income tax return, along with their spouse or common-law partner, if applicable.
