Families must submit their applications for the upcoming benefit period within specific deadlines to secure continued financial support without losing monthly payout continuity. <\/p>\n
The family allowance is granted and paid to eligible entities for a benefit period running from November 1 to October 31 of the following calendar year. Determining the right to support occurs upon application, and the submission deadline directly impacts the payment date.<\/p>\n
Electronic applications can be submitted starting July 1, while traditional paper applications begin August 1. If the application and required attachments are submitted by the end of August, the determination of rights and payment of the family allowance will occur by the end of November, preventing any loss of payout continuity between benefit periods.<\/p>\n
If the application is submitted between September 1 and October 31, the determination and payment will occur by December 31 with compensation starting from November. If submitted between November 1 and December 31, the payment will occur by the last day of February of the following year with compensation from November or December depending on the submission date.<\/p>\n
Applications for the family allowance can be submitted online or at the office. Electronic submission is available via the emp@tia portal after logging in with a trusted profile or an electronic signature using a valid qualified certificate, where applicants select the family allowance tab and complete the form step by step.<\/p>\n
To submit a traditional application, it is necessary to fill out and sign the appropriate form available at the office where the application is submitted. Paper applications can also be mailed through postal services.<\/p>\n
The family allowance covers expenses related to child maintenance in families facing difficult financial situations and is paid until the child reaches a specific age, which also determines the amount of the allowance.<\/p>\n
Support is generally provided until the child turns 18, or 21 if continuing education at a school. If the child holds a moderate or severe disability certificate and studies in secondary or higher education, the allowance can be paid until they turn 24.<\/p>\n
Eligible applicants include a parent, legal guardian, factual caregiver who has filed for adoption, or a self-educating person who is an adult student not maintained by parents due to their death or receipt of alimony.<\/p>\n
Establishing the right to the allowance requires meeting an income criterion, which is the maximum income per family member in the calendar year preceding the benefit period, set at 674 PLN net, or 764 PLN net for families with a disabled child.<\/p>\n
The amount of the family allowance depends on the child’s age and situation, amounting to 95 PLN monthly for a child under 5, 124 PLN monthly for a child aged 5 to 18, and 135 PLN monthly for a child over 18 up to age 24.<\/p>\n
Beneficiaries can also receive various additions to support their budget, including a 1,000 PLN childbirth addition, a 400 PLN monthly parental leave childcare addition, a 193 PLN monthly single parent addition up to 386 PLN total, a 95 PLN monthly large family addition, a 90 PLN to 110 PLN monthly disability education and rehabilitation addition, a 100 PLN one-time school start addition, and a 69 PLN to 113 PLN monthly away-from-home schooling addition.<\/p>\n
