The traffic light coalition wants to bundle existing benefits such as child benefit, benefits from the Citizen’s Allowance for Children and the child supplement in the basic child benefit. With the introduction of the basic child benefit, the immediate supplement introduced during the Corona pandemic in the Federal Child Benefit Act, in the Social Code II and XII and in the Asylum Seekers Benefits Act will no longer apply.
