How much child benefit can I receive?

Child benefit was previously staggered according to the number of children, but is now a uniform 255 Euro per child.

Child benefit is paid for children under 18 in any case. For children over 18, the entitlement continues until their 25th birthday, as long as they are in education or doing voluntary service. Child benefit is paid out by the family offices of the Federal Employment Agency. Public sector employees or recipients of pension payments usually receive the money directly from their employers.
