CDCP Renewal: What You Need to Know for 2025

Did you get accepted for the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) in 2024? It’s time for your annual CDCP renewal for 2025! The Government of Canada is conducting its reassessment of CDCP eligibility to ensure individuals continue to meet all the necessary requirements to maintain their dental coverage.

If you or someone you know are currently enrolled in the CDCP, here’s what you need to know:

1. Renew Your Coverage After Filing Your 2024 Tax Return

Before you can renew your CDCP coverage, you will need to complete your 2024 tax return and receive your Notice of Assessment from the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA). You will also receive a letter from the Government of Canada with instructions on how to renew your coverage. This renewal is crucial to continue receiving dental benefits without any interruptions.

2. Deadline for Renewal: June 1, 2025

To avoid a potential gap in your dental coverage, make sure your renewal is completed before June 1, 2025. While late renewals will still be accepted, delays could result in a temporary loss of coverage, and retroactive coverage will not be offered. Please note, any dental expenses incurred during a gap period will not be covered or reimbursed. Once your coverage is confirmed, visit our website to find a clinic that welcomes CDCP patients near you!

3. What do you need for renewed Canadian Dental Care Plan Coverage in 2025?

You will need to provide the Government of Canada the following information to ensure your personal information is current and update:

  1. Social Insurance Number
  2. Client Number
  3. Mailing and Home Address
  4. Marital Status (If Applicable)
  5. Contact Information (Phone and Email Address)
  6. A list of dental coverage through coverage through government social programs (If Applicable)

4. What Happens After Your Renew Your Canadian Dental Care Plan Coverage in 2025?

Upon completing the renewal process, you will receive a confirmation letter from the Government of Canada outlining your eligibility, your new coverage start date, and any adjustments to your co-payment. Co-payment levels will be based on your 2024 adjusted family net income.

5. What If You Don’t Renew or Are No Longer Eligible?

If you do not complete your Canadian Dental Care Plan renewal process for 2025 or are no longer eligible for the CDCP, your dental coverage will end on June 30th. You will receive a notification informing you of the termination of your coverage.
