  • Double-Check Details: Ensure all personal information matches your most recent tax filing to prevent processing delays.
  • Save Confirmation: Print or screenshot your renewal confirmation for your records.
  • Stay Informed: If your adjusted family net income changes significantly, review your determination letter for any co-payment adjustments.

Following these steps ensures a seamless renewal process and maintains continuous access to the Canadian Dental Care Plan’s benefits.
