The allowance is recognized for each dependent minor child and, for new borns, it starts from the seventh month of pregnancy.
It is also recognized foreach dependent adult child, up to the age of 21, in the presence of certain conditions, and is recognized without age limits for each child with a disability.
The amount paid to each family takes into account the ISEE indicator presented and will be quantified in a variable quota modulated progressively (ranging from a maximum of 175eurosfor each minor child with ISEE up to 15 thousand euro, at a minimum of 50 euros for each minor child in the absence of ISEE or with ISEE equal to or greater than 40 thousand euros).
The amounts due for each child may be increased in the case of large families (for children after the second), mothers under the age of 21, families with four or more children, parents who both earn income from work, children with disabilities.
Being universal, the check will also go to families who do not declare ISEE or have ISEE greater than €40,000. In this case, however, you will receive the minimum amount equal to 50 euros per month for each dependent child.
The amount paid replaces previous deductions for dependent children and household allowances. From March 2022, in fact, allowances for the family unit and family allowances will no longer be paid in the pay slip and deductions for dependent children under 21 will no longer be recognized, as they will be replaced by the single universal allowance.
For this reason it is necessary for all taxpayers with dependent children to submit the request so as not to lose the benefits in terms of deductions and family allowances, now replaced by the single and universal allowance.
