If you and your children live in Brussels, Wallonia or the German-speaking Community, you may be entitled to family allowance under the family allowance schemes in these regions.
Does your child attend a Dutch-speaking childcare facility or school in Flanders or Brussels? If you meet the conditions, you can receive Flemish participation allowances in addition to the family allowance from the relevant region.
The childcare allowance, preschooler allowance and school allowance are also granted automatically to children from the other regions. You can apply for the allowance yourself via a payment fund of your choice. This will make the allocation process faster.
