Monatliche Pauschalbeträge für laufende Leistungen zum Unterhalt der in Pflegefamilien untergebrachten Minderjährigen und jungen Volljährigen Feststellung

In the case of full-time care benefits, the necessary maintenance of the minor and young adult is ensured by ongoing benefits. The necessary maintenance includes the costs for material expenses and for care and education.

To ensure the necessary maintenance of foster children, ongoing benefits are granted in the form of lump sums for the costs of material expenses and care and education.

The lump sums for the costs of material expenses are graduated according to age and cover the entire, regularly recurring living expenses of a foster child. The lump sums for care and education are not dependent on age.

• As a rule, no documentation is required.

You have a permit for full-time care according to § 44 SGB VIII and are in a foster relationship of full-time care.

Foster carers can apply for the monthly lump sums if they have a declaration of assignment from the guardians of the foster child.

In Bremen, PiB - Pflegekinder in Bremen gemeinnützige GmbH already takes care of the declaration of assignment from the guardians directly when placing foster children. PiB also advises you on the application process. If you take in a foster child in Bremen, you can apply for the monthly lump sum directly to PiB.

You can also submit an application for monthly lump sums digitally via the online service "Pflegekinderwesen Digital" using the form "Monatlicher Pauschalbetrag in der Vollzeitpflege (Leistungen nach § 33 i.V.m § 39 SGB VIII)".
