More money for families in Austria
The government has decided on a one-time payment of 180 euros per child for people who receive family allowance. Recipients of family allowance receive this one-time payment automatically in August or September. This means that it does not have to be requested separately.
The family bonus has also been increased and will be 2,000 euros per child or 650 euros for children over 18 next year. This must, however, with the Formular E30Can be requested via the employer’s payroll accounting. If you have not done this, you can apply for the family bonus plus via the employee tax assessment.
In addition, the additional child allowance has been increased. For parents who have a lower income, this tax deduction is increased to 550 euros. This amount must also be applied for in the employee tax assessment in 2023.
