April 3 @ 8:00 am – 11:59 pm
Hey Folks! I often see people asking “when do GST rebates come out?” posted around Facebook, so I added these to this website’s event calendar for easy reference.
GST Rebate Payment Dates
The Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) typically sends GST/HST rebate credit payments around the fifth day of January, April, July, and October each year.
However…
When the 5th falls on a Saturday, a Sunday, or a federal holiday, the payment will be made on the last business day before the 5th.
For example: if the 5th falls on a weekend (Sat or Sun), the payment will be sent out on the last business day (usually a Friday) before the 5th.
Upcoming GST Rebate Payment Dates
The next GST rebate payment will be Friday April 3rd, 2026.
Here’s the full schedule…
GST Rebate Payments 2026:
Jan 5th, 2026
April 3rd, 2026
July 5th, 2026
Oct 5th, 2026
If you do not receive your GST/HST credit payment by direct deposit on the expected date, the CRA says “please wait 10 working days before contacting us“.
You can login to your My Account to check your next payment date or sign up to receive reminders about benefit and credit payments approximately one week before they are issued.
You can find more info about GST/HST and other tax credits and benefits here.
What Time is GST Deposited?
There is no set time that GST hits your bank account, it this depends on your bank. Banks tend to do these in batches. (for example, I’m with TD and payments that come from transfers or direct deposit get posted at 4pm most of the time, vs when the person or organization actually sends them to me).
So, keep an eye on your direct deposits to see what time these payments come for you.
