Based on your arrival date of January 22, 2025, you likely cannot claim the Canada Workers Benefit (CWB) for the 2025 tax year because you were not a resident of Canada throughout the entire year. The CWB requires residency for the full tax year (January 1 to December 31).

 

Please read the CRA website for more information on the Canada Workers' Benefit.
