Does the amount of my child benefits change if I start living with someone?
Do you have a low income? If you start living with your partner, you will lose the right to the supplement for single parents with low incomes. You may also lose the social supplement, as we will then have to consider your combined incomes.
This also applies when you form a de facto household with someone.
When do you form a de facto household?
- You live with someone who is not a family member up to the third degree.
- And you both contribute (financially) to the household.
Family members up to the third degree: (adoptive) parents, (adoptive) children, (great-) grandparents, (great-) grandchildren, brothers, sisters, nieces, nephews, uncles, and aunts.
