About the Canada Learning Bond

The Canada Learning Bond is a federally-funded education savings grant for children of lower-income families receiving the National Child Benefit Supplement. The Canada Learning Bond offers up to $2,000 in RESP contributions, with no family contribution required, to children born after December 31, 2003. Once an eligible family opens an RESP the Government makes an initial deposit of $500, plus an additional $100 each year until the child reaches the age of 15, up to a maximum of $2,000.
