Government adopts new “Family 500 plus” regulations

The government has adopted a bill on the extension of the “Family 500 plus” program of social benefits, Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki said on Tuesday. Once the bill has been signed into law, parents will be entitled to receive PLN 500 benefits for every child or adolescent aged up to 18. Currently, they can claim such benefits for the second and every subsequent child. Benefits for the first child can be claimed if certain income criteria are met.
