Are my parents entitled to child allowance while I am following language courses?

If you are under 25 and still legally dependent on either of your parents, the latter may still benefit from child allowance on certain conditions.

In order to receive the allowance, kindly complete form P7. This form can be obtained from the Child Allowance Fund.

If you are eligible for child allowance, you will commit yourself, at the time of your registration, to register for several modules for a certain time. This is necessary to comply with legal regulations with regard to child allowance. For language courses in our centre, this comes down to an average of 17 hours of classes per week.

More information about child benefits can be found on www.fons.be.

Caution! No child benefit can be requested for private courses.
