How much gross benefit will I receive?
The social assistance benefit is a net benefit. To apply for benefits at the tax authorities, you must enter the gross annual amount. Do you have any other income besides your social assistance benefit? Then you must deduct this income from your gross benefit. The final gross annual amount of your benefit is stated on your annual statement. You will receive the annual statement of the previous year in February.
The provisional gross annual benefits for 2024 for the various social assistance standards can be seen below.
