In August, on top of child benefits, you will receive the school allowance.
You can receive monthly child benefits until the child’s 25th birthday (under conditions between 18 and 25 years). The amount of child benefits varies depending on:
- the family situation (orphan, single-parent family, limited family income, number of children in the family)
- the child’s health condition (condition or disability)
- the child’s age
