Germany: wage compensation because of school closure and emergency child supplement

Submitted by mmarquez on

bmfsfj.de (31.03.2020) Familien mit kleinen Einkommen können einen monatlichen Kinderzuschlag (KiZ) von bis zu 185 Euro erhalten. Ob und in welcher Höhe der KiZ gezahlt wird, hängt von mehreren Faktoren ab - vor allem vom eigenen Einkommen, den Wohnkosten, der Größe der Familie und dem Alter der Kinder. So kann eine Familie mit zwei Kindern und einer Warmmiete von 1.000 Euro den KiZ erhalten, wenn das gemeinsame Bruttoeinkommen rund 1.600 bis 3.300 Euro beträgt.
