Saskatchewan Low-Income Tax Credit

A tax-free quarterly amount for low- and modest-income residents, paid with the Canada Groceries and Essentials Benefit. Verbatim from CRA, for July 2026 to June 2027: "$460 for an individual, $460 for a spouse or common-law partner (or for an eligible dependant), and $181 per child (maximum of two children), or an annual credit of up to $1,282 per family."

The catch: The child amount stops at two children, so a family of five draws the same as a family of four - an unusual cap and the detail most likely to be summarised wrongly elsewhere. Reduction starts at an adjusted family net income of $39,345 and finishes by $81,668. No application exists; a filed return is the only route.

Who can get it

The credit starts to be reduced when the adjusted family net income is more than $39,345. Families with adjusted family net income between $39,345 and $81,668 may get part of the credit. automatic
