Key Dates

• December 11, 2025 – deadline to apply
• April 20, 2026 – earliest job start date
• July 20, 2026 – latest job start date
• August 29, 2026 – latest job end date

Funding confirmation will be sent to employers starting in April 2026 and will continue into the summer months.

Quick Overview

Most of the program requirements are the same as the 2025 CSJ Program requirements. The Applicant Guide has been rewritten in plain language and restructured n helpful ways, with more information placed in the relevant sections as it walks applicants through the process of completing the application form. There are small changes, like a separate section ensuring Workers’ Compensation is in place and that applicants “must” give notification of changes to the contact person instead of “please inform”.

There is more detail about who fits into the category “youth who face barriers to employment” and more detail about the skills youth can expect to develop.

The Guide helpfully reminds applicants that constituency boundaries changed in 2025. Ensure that the location for job activities properly aligns with the redrawn boundaries.

Eligibility Criteria

Most of the eligibility criteria is UNCHANGED for 2026 including:

Eligible employers

Not-for-profit employers remain eligible and faith-based organizations are explicitly mentioned as eligible

Ineligible employers

This includes organizations that engage in activities that “directly or indirectly infringe, undermine, weaken, or restrict the exercise of human rights legally protected in Canada.” What does this mean? According to the Guide it means to “weaken or limit a woman’s ability to access sexual and reproductive health services” (sexuality education, family planning, prevention and response to sexual and gender-based violence, safe and legal abortion, and post-abortion care)

Eligible Projects

Projects must still meet 15 requirements and the conditions in the Articles of Agreement

• Submit before the deadline
• Check attestation box
• Provide a complete application
• Employer is eligible
• Project activities are eligible
• Job is 6-16 consecutive weeks
• Job is 30-40 hours per week
• Declare other sources of funding
• Salary must respect minimum wage requirements
• Declare money owing to the Government of Canada
• Demonstrate adequate health and safety measures relative to job and activities
• Demonstrate harassment and discrimination-free hiring, work environment
• Outline a supervision plan
• Outline a mentoring plan
• Past results of CSJ applications

Ineligible Projects & Activities

The list of ineligible projects and activities remains the same. Ineligible projects and activities includes: activities outside of Canada, that are of personal service to an employer, are partisan political activities, that are fundraising activities to cover the youth’s salary and, project or job activities that:

• Restrict access to programs, or services, or employment, or otherwise discriminate, contrary to applicable laws, on the basis of prohibited grounds, including sex, genetic characteristics, religion, race, national or ethnic origin, colour, mental or physical disability, sexual orientation or gender identity or expression;
• Advocate intolerance, discrimination, and/or prejudice; or
• Actively work to undermine or restrict a woman’s access to sexual and reproductive health services

The Attestation

The 2025 Attestation remains the same. The applicant must attest that he or she:

• Has read, understood and will comply with the CSJ Articles of Agreement;
• Has the necessary authority, permission and approvals to submit the CSJ application;
• Certifies that the application information is true, accurate and complete;
• Confirms that neither the job activities nor any of the activities of my organization which are directly or indirectly supported by the job activities in any way infringe, undermine, weaken, or restrict the exercise of rights legally protected in Canada.
• Recall that the fourth statement was added to the 2024 guide, kept in 2025 and remains for 2026

Assessment Criteria *MODIFIED

Applications are assessed against three main criteria (the underlined criteria have changed):

1.Provide quality work experiences for youth (30 points)

• Provide a salary above minimum wage (10)
• Retain the youth as an employee after the CSJ agreement (5)
• Youth receives supervision (15)

2.Provide opportunities for youth to develop and improve their skills (40 points; reduced from 45)

• Youth receives mentoring (13; reduced from 15)
• Youth will develop transferable skills through work experience (27; reduced from 30)

What are those skills? The list has been slightly modified.

The skills listed on the application form have stayed the same with one deletion: reading and/or writing. This skill was added for 2025 but removed for 2026. For 2026, each skill has a more detailed description and examples.

3.Respond to national and local priorities to improve access to the labour market for youth who face unique barriers (30 points; increased from 25 points)

A. Youth facing barriers to employment (10 points; new as standalone consideration)

Youth facing barriers to employment is a new category. In the past it has been folded into national priorities but is now a standalone consideration. Applicants will be use checkboxes to select which of the following youth, if any, will be prioritized during recruitment:

• Indigenous youth
• Racialized youth
• Black youth
• Youth with disabilities
• Youth in rural, remote, Northern or fly-in communities
• Youth in an official language minority communities
• 2SLGBTQI+ youth.

Applicants will also be asked to select from a list as to how these youth will be prioritized during recruitment. If you do prioritize recruiting youth facing barriers, your recruitment and hiring plans could be monitored to ensure they align with the commitment made in your application. Ensure you carefully review this section and be sure to follow through in your recruitment.

B. National priorities (10; reduced from 15)

There are three national priorities for 2026, a reduction from the usual five. This is likely due to the restructured points allocation whereby hiring youth facing barriers to employment is its own criteria, rather than a national priority that changes from year to year. The three priorities are:

1. Jobs related to construction
   • This can include affordable housing, community development initiatives, housing advocacy efforts, labour and structural work, etc.
2. Jobs related to environmental protection and/or green jobs
   • This can include jobs that contribute to protecting the environment, conservation or restoration
3. Jobs that provide exposure to technology and digital skills, including AI in the workplace

C. Local Priorities (10)

Local priorities continue to be used to assess applications. Those vary from constituency to constituency.

What to do?

This year the proposed target is 100,000 jobs funded for CSJ 2026, an increase of from the 70,000 jobs funded for CSJ 2025. It is always a competitive program with more applications than funds and it can be hard to precisely identify why some applications are successful and others are not, and whether religious discrimination is at work.

As always, charity leaders need to make up their own minds as to whether they are comfortable with the terms and conditions attached to CSJ funding. From a CCCC perspective, we’re still of the view that the phrasing of the Attestation ought not deny the right of religious organizations to speak or teach or live their religious views, even if that doesn’t line up with the government’s worldview. And therefore, as the Guide notes, not-for-profit employers, including “faith-based organizations (for example, churches, synagogues, temples, mosques)” are eligible to apply for CSJ 2026.

If your charity is interested in CSJ 2026, ensure your application is complete, that it meets as many of the listed priorities as possible, and that your charity is prepared for the possibility of additional scrutiny and questions.

Just over a year ago, on November 30, 2022, the draft version of the guidance was released for public feedback.

So, What’s Changed?

In sum, the new guidance is better organized, provides some clarifications, makes clearer links between the guidance and the Income Tax Act requirements it is meant to reflect, and confirms the scope or limits of the guidance.

Let’s look at a few of the key changes.

Scope & Limits of the Guidance

The guidance is very clear about what it is and what it is not:

“This guidance is not law.”

This seems to directly address concerns that the guidance was creating obligations or expectations of charities that went beyond the scope of the ITA requirements. It does not create legal obligations but “recommends ways a charity can meet the Income Tax Requirements” [emphasis added].

Or, as the guidance states elsewhere:

“A charity does not have to follow our granting recommendations. It can show in its books and records that it has used other measures to meet the accountability requirements.”

This position is reflected in small, but important word changes throughout the document. For example, many “shoulds” are now “coulds” and “The grant-making process” is now “CRA’s recommended grant-making process.”

Similarly, the guidance repeats in several places that it tries to take a “reasonable, flexible, and proportionate” approach toward charities meeting the ITA requirements.

Clearer Links Between Guidance and ITA

Another concern was that the draft guidance used terms and ideas not contained in the ITA.

The final version does not eliminate the phrases and terminology that were at issue (e.g. “risk”, “accountability tools”, etc.) but it does better explain why and how CRA uses them and better links them to the ITA requirements.

For example:

• “Accountability requirements” means ITA requirements for making a grant
• “Accountability tools” means CRA recommended tools to meet the requirements
• “Due diligence” means steps taken to satisfy legal requirements for grants under the ITA
• “Grant” means a qualifying disbursement to a grantee organization as defined in the ITA
• “Risk” means the risk of grant resources being misused – misuse could compromise the charity’s registration and the public’s trust in the sector

Before getting into CRA’s recommendations, the guidance sets out the ITA accountability requirements. The key is that a charity ensures that the grant is exclusively applied to activities in furtherance of a charitable purpose of the charity and that the charity maintains documentation sufficient to demonstrate those requirements are met.

Next, the guidance includes a chart that lists ITA requirements, CRA’s interpretation of the requirements, CRA’s application and recommendation and where to find more details about each topic.

First requirement: disbursement (grant) furthers a charitable purpose of the charity

CRA interprets this to mean that charities can only make grants that further one or more of their own stated charitable purposes that fall within the four recognized categories (relief of poverty, advancing education, advancing religion, other purpose beneficial to the public).

Second requirement: the charity ensures disbursement (grant) exclusively applied to charitable activities

CRA interprets this to mean a charity must make sure the resources are used only for charitable activities that further its charitable purpose(s). CRA recommends charities use various accountability tools in a way that responds to the level of risk that the resources could be misused.

Third requirement: the charity maintains documentation sufficient to demonstrate the requirements are met

CRA interprets this to mean a charity must keep adequate books and records, and specific document for disbursements (grants). CRA recommends charities maintain documentation for each of these requirements in a way that responds to level of risk that the resources could be misused.

What is the Recommended Process?

These are essentially unchanged from the draft version, but the organization and flow of the guidance makes them easier to follow. Paraphrased, the steps are as follows:

How does the grant further your charity’s purpose?

• What are your charity’s purposes?
• What is the grant activity?
• What is the link between the two?
• Does the activity comply with the law?
• Does the activity meet the public benefit test?
• Does the activity provide unacceptable private benefit?
• Does the activity support terrorist activities? Does it fall within the humanitarian exemption in the Criminal Code?

With the exception of “what is the grant activity” and “what is the link between the two” the other questions are ones that charities need to ask of any new activity they undertake, whether the activity is their own, done with intermediaries, or through grant activities.

What is the grant’s risk level, based on factors impacting your charity’s ability to meet ITA requirements?

This means asking what risks exist that would impact your charity’s ability to ensure the grant resources are exclusively applied to charitable activities that further your charity’s own purposes.

Factors include:

• Your charity’s experience
• Grantee’s experience
• Purposes and governing documents of grantee organization *NEW*
• Governance structure of grantee organization *NEW*
• Grantee’s regulation and oversight *NEW*
• Private benefit concerns
• Grant activity *MODIFIED* (was Grant Activity Location)
• Grant amount
• Nature of resources granted
• Grant duration *MODIFIED* (low risk was defined as less than 1 year; now less than 2 years)

How much due diligence needs to be applied based on the risk?

This section first explores each accountability tool – what it is and how it helps a charity meet its requirements. For more information on each of these tools, see the heading “What are the Accountability Tools?”, below. It then sets out the level of work (“due diligence”) that CRA recommends for each tool, based on the level of risk attached to the particular grant.

Apply the relevant accountability tools in collaboration with the grantee

This section provides an example of how a charity and grantee work together so that the charity can meet its accountability requirements.

Document your due diligence

This section explains the general ITA requirement for charities to maintain adequate books and records. When it comes to grants, books and records need to allow CRA to determine whether they meet the accountability requirements, the grantee’s use of the resources can be verified, and that the resources were and continue to be used for purposes and activities set out in the grant’s terms.

What are the Accountability Tools?

Again, these are essentially unchanged from the draft version, but they have been slightly revised and reorganized. This section begins with an explanation of each accountability tool, noting how each is intended to help a charity meet accountability requirements. This is an update from draft language that said the tools helped to “manage” or “mitigate” risk.  Risk is addressed more fully in a chart that explains how the tools would apply to different levels of risk; the risk being that the grant would not be applied exclusively to activities that further charitable purpose(s).

Research and review of the grantee

This was called “due diligence review” in the draft. The substance has not changed. It refers to assessing and documenting information about the grantee and how that can be done.

Description of grant activity, including intended outcome and charitable purpose

Written agreement, including minimum standards, milestones, outcomes and budgets

Reporting plan, including final reports and interim reports (if suitable)

This was called “monitoring and reporting” in the draft. The intention behind a plan is to help a charity track and document whether the resources were used for the intended purpose.

Transfer schedule for longer-term or higher-risk grants (if suitable)

Separately tracked funds such as a separate ledger

Clarifications & Special Topics

Foundations

Foundations with a purpose only to make gifts to other qualified donees cannot make grants. Grants must further a stated common law charitable purpose within one of the four categories of advancing religion, advancing education, relieving poverty or other purpose beneficial to the public.

A standalone grant-making purpose would not fall within one of the four categories.

This means that foundations may need to amend their purposes in order to make grants.

Directed Gifts

The ITA (s 168(1)(f)) prohibits charities from accepting gifts that are expressly or implicitly conditional on the charity transferring it to anyone other than a qualified donee.

The guidance now provides separate examples of explicitly and implicitly conditional gifts. The implicitly conditional example is:

A charity includes the name of a non-qualified donee in its own name, purposes, or other formal documents, indicating this would be the sole recipient of any grants the charity makes. Any funds the charity receives from a donor could be implicitly conditional on the charity granting it over to the specific non-qualified done, and could jeopardize the charity’s registration.

CRA’s recommendation to avoid concerns about directed gifts remains the same:

• Donors can indicate program preferences, but ultimate authority on use of resources must rest with the charity
• Donors do not receive their donation back if the charity does not use it in the donor’s preferred way

Pooled Grants

Most of this section remains the same, but with slight language edits. For example, regarding written agreements the draft preferred “a written agreement be in place with all parties when charities engage in pooled grants.” The final version recommends “the charity sign onto at least one written agreement with all parties.”

Another revision is that the special accountability considerations for pooled grants no longer contains instructions that when “a written agreement is not feasible [for pooled grants] a charity should document the reasons in its books and records.”

Grants of Real Property

This section no longer starts with the presumption that a “grantee may .. transfer [the property] to another non-qualified done.” It also replaces references to generic risk with a focus on potential non-charitable uses and unacceptable private benefit.

The special accountability considerations for real property grants no longer contains a section for a transfer schedule or separately tracked funds. There is a new section for a reporting plan and more detail about the written agreement.

The reporting plan is meant to confirm that the grantee is using (and continues to use) the real property for the agreed upon charitable activities and purposes.

The written agreement elements were (sort of) addressed in the draft’s example but are clarified in the special accountability considerations in the final version.

The written agreement should include provisions:

• That if activities furthering the charity’s purpose no longer possible, grantee must get instructions from the charity to either:
  • Sell the property and return the proceeds; or
  • Transfer ownership to another party that can continue the activities
• That require the grantee to track profit from the real property
• That require profits earned are spent on the charitable activities

Grants and Anti-Terrorism Considerations

This section has been updated to include the humanitarian exemption and authorization framework recently added to the Criminal Code. These changes allow certain humanitarian activities in geographic areas that are controlled by terrorist groups.

What’s Next?

Now that we have the final guidance, we’ll update our Member Knowledge Base resources to reflect these changes.

It’s also important to remember that this guidance, while “final,” is not forever written in stone. It will be periodically reviewed and CRA always invites comments or suggestions on existing guidance.

Making Grants to Non-Qualified Donees – New Rules

Since June 23, 2022, charities have been legally allowed to make grants to non-qualified donees. This is due to legislative changes that, among other things, added the term “qualifying disbursements” to the Income Tax Act (ITA). For more details, see our post Bill C-19 Has Passed.

The ITA requires that for every grant over $5,000, the granting charity must report the name of the grantee, the purpose of the grant, and the total yearly amount granted to the grantee.

Reporting Grants to Non-Qualified Donees – Not Yet Required

Until the T3010, Registered Charity Information Return and the accompany guide T4033, Completing the Registered Charity Information Return are updated, you are not required to report your granting activities.

The T3010 and T4033 are being updated now. The CRA anticipates a spring 2023 release date.

Books and Records  – Still Required!

Even though CRA has clarified that you don’t have to report your granting activities (yet!), the CRA is also very clear that charities must keep adequate books and records to support all granting activities:

“Your books and records must contain enough information to allow the CRA to assess whether your charity is operating in accordance with the Income Tax Act.”

Of course, the books and records requirement applies all the time, to all of your charity’s operations. They must be sufficient to show your charity complies with applicable legislation.

Guidance CG-032, Registered charities making grants to non-qualified donees (DRAFT)

As we discussed in an earlier blog post, the CRA released draft guidance on making grants to non-qualified donees (November 2022). The formal deadline to submit your feedback is January 31, 2023.

Grants in The Green

We’ve got a space in The Green where you can chat with other charities about grants and working with non-qualified donees.

When?

There are two intake periods: the first opened late April 2022 and the second will open August 2022. Applications are accepted until the funding is fully allotted or all eligible applications are funded, whichever is first.

How Much?

You can apply for up to $10,000 per employee, up to a maximum of $100,000. You’ll have to make sure you have a job available for the trainee after successful completion of the training. If you have 100 or fewer employees, the grant will cover up to 75% of eligible training fees; for those with 101 or more employees, it will cover up to 50%.

What Training?

Eligible training fees include tuition, student fees, materials (textbooks, software, etc.), exam fees, and certain travel costs. The training has to be delivered by a third party external to the employer. The training must be necessary to equip your employees with new skills or knowledge to meet organizational goals. You can apply for training that’s already taken place, so long as it took place in the same fiscal year of your application. The fiscal year for Job Grant purposes is April 1 – March 31.

Who is Eligible?

Non-profits are eligible to apply. Schools and post-secondary institutions that receive provincial and/or federal funding are not eligible. If you’ve received three of these job grants over the past five years, you’re also not eligible. And – of course – you have to meet all of the eligibility criteria!

Trainees must be Canadian citizens or permanent residents and who work in Manitoba. They could be full-time, part-time or seasonally employed.

Application Questions?

The application is an Excel spreadsheet that you have to complete. There’s the usual identifying contact information, which includes a drop-down menu for “sector”. There’s no option for non-profit or charity, so you’ll have to find the next most applicable category or you might need to use the “other” category.

You’ll need to include a general description of your organization, select whether your training program is related to COVID-19 and if not, briefly explain the business/organizational needs that will be met by the training program.

You’ll also need to provide some details about the training plan, including:

• Course name
• Type of training
• Skills to be learned
• Name of training organization
• Number of training participants
• Total course cost
• Start and end dates
• Credential/certificate earned
• Training participant name
