Description
The child allowance supports private individuals in Vorarlberg with a monthly contribution of €50 upon the birth or adoption of a child. Beneficiary households with a new construction subsidy approval or consent to assume an existing new construction subsidy loan within the last ten years receive this support for up to two years, but no longer than the remaining term of the subsidy loan. The goal is to provide noticeable financial relief to young families in the social sector and to promote family-friendliness in the region. The allowance increases to €75 per child per month in the case of multiple births, underscoring the commitment of the State of Vorarlberg to family-friendly housing subsidies.
Applications must be submitted within three months after birth or adoption and are valid until December 31, 2026. Essential requirements include compliance with income limits according to the current new construction subsidy guidelines as well as the exclusion of a previously considered child bonus in the original new construction subsidy approval. The funding covers a project duration of 24 months, with monthly subsidy payments recognized as eligible expenses. The application process includes the completed application for child allowance, income proofs of all household members, and the birth certificate(s) of the child or children. Interested parties can find further information and application forms on the official state websites to comprehensively inform themselves about the requirements and deadlines.
