Change in Conjugal Status – Family Allowance
Should your conjugal situation change, the amount of your Family Allowance payment will be recalculated. To avoid having to repay overpayments, you must take the following steps according to the changes in your situation:
-
The parent who is currently receiving Family Allowance payments must use the online service to inform us of any change in conjugal status. In the event of a separation, the parent must wait 90 days after the separation to inform us.
- The parent who does not receive the Family Allowance payments in his or her name must file an Application for Family Allowance if the child lives with him or her at least 40% of the time per month.
