Monthly Child Benefit

Ka

My U.S. mamas!! Really good news from the Biden administration. We may be getting a child benefit payment each month of $250 per child for people making under $75k a year and joint couples making less than $150k a year. This is great news, as most of the world already gets some kind of child benefit each month. And before I get attacked by Biden haters saying he's just throwing more money away, did you know the rest of the world already does this?? It's a right given to parents that WE pay into. It's called taxes and social security! I hope it gets passed. I'm ready for my hard earned money to come back to me for a change. If we only get 8 weeks paid maternity leave we should get some damn financial help!!

UK: Child Benefit is a monthly payment that can help you with the costs of your children. If you're eligible you'll get £21.05 a week for your first child and £13.95 a week for any children after that. You can claim Child Benefit if: you're 'responsible for the child'

Germany: As of January 2021, for the first and second child, child allowance is 219 euros per month. For the third child it is 225 euros. For the fourth and any subsequent children the sum is 250 euros.
