Wer bekommt Elterngeld?

Elterngeld, or parental allowance, is a benefit provided to parents of infants and young children. Its purpose is to enable parents to have time with their child, to raise and care for them.

Elterngeld serves as compensation for parents who have reduced or completely stopped working temporarily after the birth of their child, resulting in lower income.

In this way, Elterngeld helps to secure the financial foundation of families during this crucial time.

Elterngeld is also available to parents who had no income before the birth of their child.

Elterngeld is accessible to parents as a couple, single parents, or those who are co-parenting while living separately.
