加拿大儿童福利津贴2015年起每月增至$160
从2015年1月开始，家中有幼童的家长将能从联邦政府与卑诗省府获得更多托儿补助金(Child Care Subsidy)。但幼福倡议团体指出，这样的作为可能令家长更难以负担相关费用。
在全省幼儿福利金方面，6岁以下的幼儿从本月开始，每月可以领取的福利金从原有100元增加到160元，6岁到17岁的未成年人每月也可领取60元福利金，每年最多获得720元。此外，省府也计画提供年收入15万元以下家庭新的幼儿补助。
熊爸注：（这部分涨的金额是联邦政府托儿津贴计划（Universal Child CareBenefit 简称UCCB），UCCB从2015年1月开始，对6岁以下的孩子，从每月$100刀涨为$160刀！！但是实际账面显示会有所不同）
for children under six, you’ll receive $100 per month from January to June, $520 in July, and $160 per month starting in August.
对于六岁以下的儿童，从2015年1月到6月每月是100，然后7月份会给520，从8月开始每月160刀。
for children between six and seventeen, you’ll receive $420 in July and $60 per month starting in August.
对于六岁到17岁，将在七月份收到420，然后从八月开始每月60.
卑诗儿童照顾提倡联盟的葛瑞森(Sharon Gergson)对省府的新补助计画相当不以为然，她表示在本省优质的儿童托育中心非常难找，费用也相当昂贵，这样的补助一点帮助也没有。

她认为，这样的调整反而会让相关费用变得更加昂贵，更好的做法应该是如同新民主党(NDP)所提案的直接支付政策。她说∶「只要补助金增长，相关的托儿费用也会一并调涨。省府这样的作法是短视且无助於解决长期托儿问题」。
附送一些2015年新的家庭津贴和税务的改变：
If you have kids under 18, you’ll probably be impacted by some of the tax changes announced by the federal government late last week. Some changes take effect this year and others in 2015. Here’s what’s new:
Children’s fitness amount (2014)
儿童健身额度
The amount of children’s fitness expenses you may claim for each child has increased from $500 to $1,000. The increased credit is worth $751.
抵税额度从500提升到1000
What do you need to do? Not much, just hold onto your receipts for your children’s fitness expenses. When you complete your tax return you’ll be able to enter up to $1,000 (rather than up to $500).
只要把儿童健身开销的收据留着，然后报税时候提交即可
Family tax cut (2014)
家庭税务减少
This new tax credit (which is frequently referred to as income splitting) is worth up to $2,000 for families where the parents are in different tax brackets.
What do you need to do? Both partners must complete a return to be eligible for this credit, and both of you must complete your returns at the same time (since it takes your total income and tax credits into account).
家庭可以分开报税了！
Child care expense limits (2015)
The maximum deduction limits for child care expenses will increase to:
$8,000 (from $7,000) per child under age seven,
$5,000 (from $4,000) per child age seven to 16 (and infirm dependent children over age 16), and
$11,000 (from $10,000) per child who is eligible for the Disability Tax Credit, regardless of his or her age.
What do you need to do? Not much, just hold onto your receipts for your child care expenses. When we calculate your allowable deduction, we’ll use these new limits.
Changes to the UCCB (2015)
联邦托儿津贴增加
The universal child care benefit (UCCB) will increase to:
$160 (from $100) per month for each child under six, and
$60 (from $0) per month for each child between six and seventeen.
The UCCB is paid out monthly by cheque or direct deposit. While the changes to the UCCB will be effective from January 2015, the first seven months’ difference will be paid out in July 2015. This means:
for children under six, you’ll receive $100 per month from January to June, $520 in July, and $160 per month starting in August.
for children between six and seventeen, you’ll receive $420 in July and $60 per month starting in August.
These changes to the UCCB will not impact the CCTB (Canada Child Tax Benefit), which is the other monthly payment that some families receive.
What do you need to do? If you’re already receiving the UCCB for your child, you simply need to file a 2014 tax return to continue receiving it. We’ll update this post when the government announces how to apply for the UCCB for children over six.
Federal amount for children (2015)
The “federal amount for children under 18” (which is a non-refundable credit that you claim when you file your tax return) will be eliminated in 2015. This credit is worth about $338 total in 2014. This credit is sometimes referred to the child tax credit and is not the same as the CCTB.
