Adjusted Family Net Income

Adjusted family net income is family net income [line 23600 for individual, plus spouse/common-law partner, if applicable] minus Universal child care benefit (UCCB) and Registered Disability Savings Plan (RDSP) income plus UCCB and RDSP repayment.

This amount is used for many income-tested benefits, such as:

  • Pharmacare benefits,
  • GST credit,
  • Provincial & Territorial tax credits paid with the GST credit,
  • Canada child benefit,
  • RESP grants
  • many federal and provincial or territorial non-refundable tax credits.

Note: Adjusted income for provincial grants are calculated based on net income from provincial tax return.
