How do I know if I’ve received my government payment with direct deposit?

Verify your transactions to your bank account from your online bank or the National Bank app. The payments will be deposited directly into your account. 

You can verify if a payment has been sent by going to the Canada Revenue Service website and signing in to My Account.

Important: National Bank and the Canada Revenue Agency will never send emails, texts, or Interac® e-Transfer requests containing links asking you to provide personal information.

These are common fraud tactics. Never respond to these messages and don’t open any links provided because they may have cause malware to be installed on your devices.

Check out our Security ABCs to learn how to protect yourself.
