Freibeträge für Kind unter 18 Jahren beantragen

• You can apply for a child allowance for a child under the age of 18.

In the case of family benefit equalization, child benefit is usually paid during the year. At the end of the calendar year, the tax office checks as part of an income tax assessment whether a child allowance and an additional allowance for the child's care and education or training needs should be deducted or whether the child benefit should remain.

However, the allowances are always taken into account when calculating the solidarity surcharge and church tax.

The child allowance can be claimed for children who are related to the taxpayer in the first degree.

Under certain conditions, a child allowance can also be claimed for foster children.
