Detailed introduction of German immigrant parents' fund application

Germany is the most economically developed country in the world. What can I apply for after immigrating to Germany? Dear, I have compiled a detailed introduction to the application of German immigrant parents here, hoping to help you.

I. Overview

Parents' money is also called parents' money. As the name implies, parents who gave birth to children in Germany can receive a sum of money from the German government, which can be used to make up for the lost work income of parents while taking care of their children. It is precisely because of this that parents can take care of their babies with more peace of mind ~

Second, the parents' fund application conditions

When either parent meets the following conditions, they can apply for and get parental allowance in Germany as an applicant:

Possess German nationality;

Hold a long-term residence permit in Germany;

Hold a German work visa;

Hold an EU blue card visa;

Holding a German legal person visa;

Family reunion visa with German work permit;

In addition, the following conditions need to be met:

After the baby is born, the applicant takes care of himself;

The child was born after 2007;

The applicant does not work every week, or the working hours do not exceed 30 hours;

Both the applicant and his children live in Germany;

One year before the baby is born, the total tax paid by both parents shall not exceed 500,000 euros. If only one person in the family works, the total tax should not exceed 20,000 euros. People who exceed this amount will not get their parents' pension.

Third, the amount of parental allowance

If the applicant did not have a job before the baby was born, the basic parents' pension of 300 euros can be obtained every month after the baby is born.

If both parents apply, they can take a vacation of 14 months at the longest, and they can take a vacation separately or together; If one parent applies, it can last up to 12 months.

If the applicant had a job before the baby was born, the pension received by parents should be calculated according to a certain proportion of after-tax income. The ratio is as follows:

Prenatal wages are above 1240 euros, accounting for 65%;

Prenatal wages are above 1220 euros, accounting for 66%;

Prenatal wages range from 1000 euros to 1200 euros, with a percentage of 67%;

The prenatal salary is lower than 1000 euros, and the lower the salary, the higher the proportion, reaching 100%.

Because mothers can receive maternity allowance (Mutterschaftsgeld) after giving birth, if mothers have jobs before giving birth, if the amount of maternity allowance they receive after giving birth exceeds the amount of parental allowance, they cannot receive it again, that is to say, parental allowance can only be received after receiving maternity allowance.

That is to say, the minimum for parents is 300 Euros per month, and the maximum is 1800 Euros.

In addition, for children born on July 20 15 1 day, parents can apply for ElterngeldPlus. Enhanced parental allowance is more suitable for the situation that both parents want to take part-time jobs while receiving parental allowance (Teilzeitarbeit). The enhanced version of parents' money is at most half of that of ordinary parents, but the total time of receiving it is twice that of ordinary parents.
