Frequently asked questions
How the child benefit is calculated
What determines the amount?
On the household means test value and the number of children. In 2026 it goes from 203.80 euro a month per child up to a value of 17,468.51 euro, tapering down to 58.30 euro above 46,582.71 euro. Those who file no means test still get the minimum.
Which top-ups does this include?
The 50% uplift for children under one, the 50% uplift for children aged one to three in households with at least three children within the upper threshold, and the 150 euro a month for households with four or more children. Disability, under-21 mothers and dual-earner top-ups are excluded.
Do I need to reapply every year?
The application renews automatically, but the means test does not: it must be updated each year, usually by February, otherwise from March the minimum amount applies until a new one is filed, with any adjustment made later.
Is it worth applying with a high means test value?
Yes. The benefit is universal: the minimum amount is due to every household with dependent children, whatever the income and even with no means test filed. Not applying simply forfeits it.
Does my data stay private?
Yes, and not because we promise it: this tool runs entirely inside your browser. What you type or upload never leaves your device, so it never reaches a server of ours and there is nothing we could keep, read or lose. You can check it yourself: open the page, disconnect from the internet, and the tool keeps working.
Do you store what I enter?
No. There is no database behind this tool: we do not store your files, your text or your results. When you close the tab nothing is left — not here with us, because it never arrived, and not anywhere else.
Do you profile me? Are you GDPR compliant?
We do not profile you: there is no account to create, we never ask for your email to use a tool, and we keep no profile of what you do. We are an Italian company and we work under the GDPR and the other European rules, with the privacy notice and the consent request in plain sight. One thing we say in full rather than hiding it behind a slogan: the ads on the page are Google's, and Google may use cookies to personalise them. You decide from the consent banner: if you say no the ads stay, but they are not personalised, and the tool works exactly the same.
If it is free, how do you make money?
From the ads on the page, and that is all. We do not sell your data, there is no hidden paid plan, there is no limit that eventually asks for your card, and you do not have to sign up. The ads pay for the servers and for the time we spend writing the tools: that is how we can keep them open to everyone.
