Bond gets RESP started

Extra dollars are always tight during winter for Lynne and her partner Daniel, who does seasonal construction work near Thompson, Manitoba. Sending their kids to college would be out of the question, they imagined. Then Lynne's sister told them about money she had received through the Canada Learning Bond, even though she couldn't put any money into an RESP at the start. This is just the kind of help Lynne and Daniel needed.

Who can get the bond?

Your child can get the $500 Canada Learning Bond plus an extra $100 per year up to age 15 if:

• your child was born after December 31, 2003, and
• you get the National Child Benefit Supplement as part of the Canada Child Tax Benefit, commonly known as “family allowance” or “baby bonus.”
