Canada Child Benefits

[canuck_in_uk]

Let say we are a new residents to Canada (August 2018) and our family income for the previous year (2017) outside of Canada is above the CCB income threshold and we do not qualify for benefits. So, my question is whether we can skip whole process of applying for CCB?
You see, my question maybe strange and is opposite to ways to receive CCB. If we do not qualify why bother with extra process/forms?

You don't have to apply for it if you don't want to.

For new immigrants, will you be required to provide evidence of your income in your home country when applying for CCB? I ask because providing evidence for me will be tough as I have left my home country and it is just complicated.

You must provide income details and CRA may or may not require proof.
