The Bundestag has decided on a new corona-aid package. This also includes families. As they did in 2020, they are supposed to receive a child bonus this year as well. Parents will receive 150 euros once for each child for which they already receive a child benefit this year. The bonus will be paid in May. The responsible family benefits department (Familienkasse) does this automatically. One does not have to apply for the bonus. More than 10 million families will receive the child bonus in Germany, as the Federal Family Minister Franziska Giffey has announced. The cost for this aid is around 2.1 billion euros.
