What is the birth allowance?<\/h2>\n

Raising a child is a bit like building a house \u2013 it takes time, energy, and of course, money. If you live in Brussels, you have probably heard about the changes that took place on January 1, 2020, regarding child benefits (6th state reform \u2013 the Papillon agreement). The good news is that these allowances are no longer linked to your status or employment benefits. In fact, if your child lives in Brussels and has the right to reside here, that is enough to qualify for an allowance. Not bad at all, right?<\/p> <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n\n

Hassle-free birth allowance and child allowance registration<\/h4>\n

Once you apply for a birth allowance, we are here to support you every step of the way. This means that you will automatically be registered for your child allowance as well. Convenient, right? One simple application and we take care of everything for you.<\/p>\n

Brussels Family ensures that your child allowance is deposited on time every month, giving you that extra support you need.<\/p>\n

Since January 1, 2022, you are free to switch child allowance funds. We warmly welcome you to Brussels Family. If you want to register now, do it here.<\/p>\n

If your child lives in Brussels and has the right to reside here, it is entitled to the child allowance. Since 2020, it doesn’t matter any longer whether the people the child lives with are employed or if there is a family relationship between the child and the household.<\/p>

“I found out at a fairly young age that I was expecting a baby. Determined to provide my child with the best possible life, I started looking for additional income. That’s when I discovered that as a mom, I was entitled to a birth allowance. I applied for it through Brussels Family, and the process was incredibly smooth.”<\/p>

The easiest way to apply for the birth allowance is to do it online. To do this, you need to provide us with several personal details (your contact information, your social security number, etc.).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An official document indicating the expected delivery date will be provided to you by your gynecologist, midwife, or attending physician if you have been pregnant for at least six months. After that, we take care of everything for you, especially ensuring the prompt payment of your birth allowance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can also send this information by email to info@brusselsfamily.be<\/a> or by mail (Rue V\u00e9sale 31, 1000 Brussels).<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
