Was <%0500107%> unemployed and registered with the Employment Agency as a job seeker?
Select "yes" if your child was unemployed in 2024.
Your child is considered unemployed if that child:
- is registered as unemployed with the employment agency
- is not in any employment relationship.
- is in employment subject to compulsory insurance for a maximum of 15 hours per week. Children who only have a mini-job or do not earn more than 538 Euro from self-employment are also considered unemployed.
Additional conditions:
- If the child is unemployed, the entitlement to child benefit and allowances lasts up to the age of 21 at the most.
- In addition, the child must not only be registered as a jobseeker, but must also be prepared to accept any reasonable work and actively participate in labour market integration measures.
For each month of unemployment, you are entitled to the proportional child and child-raising allowance if your child is between 18 and 21 years old.
