Apply for monthly foster child support benefits
Service Description
To ensure the necessary maintenance of foster children, ongoing benefits are granted in the form of lump sums for the costs of material expenses and for care and education.
The lump sums for the costs of material expenses are graduated according to age and cover the entire, regularly recurring living expenses of a foster child. The lump sums for care and education are not dependent on age.
Process flow
Foster carers can apply for the monthly lump sums themselves if they have a declaration of assignment from the foster child's legal guardians.
The local youth welfare office or the foster child service can advise you. If necessary, you can also apply there for a one-time allowance or subsidy.
You can also submit an application for monthly lump sums digitally via the online service "pflegekinderwesen-digital" using the form "Leistungen nach § 33 i.V.m § 39 SGB VIII".
