To continue receiving Family Allowance, you must file your income tax return, just like your spouse, if you are in a relationship, even if one or both of you have no income to report. If a return has not been submitted to Revenu Québec before 30 April 2026, the payments you usually receive could temporarily be suspended.
Each spring, Retraite Québec recalculates your Family Allowance payments based on the income you declared and your conjugal status. As of mid-June, you can find out the new amounts to which you will be entitled from July 2026 to June 2027 by consulting your annual notice, which is uploaded to the My documents section in My Account.
