The dates mentioned above are the dates on which Parentia transfers the money to your bank account. You will receive your child benefits on your account two days after at the latest.

For children who live in Brussels attending a Flemish school or daycare, the daycare supplement (KOT) is paid around the 20th of each month. Kinder garden supplement is paid the month following the 3rd or 4th birthday of your child. Your annual school bonus will be paid in August together with your Flemish Growth Package of July and possible scholarships are paid between the 1st of September and the 31st of December. From the moment your Growth Package file is active, the deposit will be carried out automatically. If your children attend a Flemish school or daycare and for some reason you did not yet apply for the Flemish Growth Package, then feel free to download the document “Claim for childcare, nursery and school allowance (for children living in Brussels and Wallonia)” from our forms page and return it to us, filled out and signed. Parentia will take care of the rest.

*Payment by cheque also depends on external factors which Parentia has no control over. Therefore, there is a chance that these cheques might be delivered too late or might even get lost. If you want to avoid the chances of that happening, we advise you to communicate your bank account number. You can download the needed document on our ‘forms page’, (choose “Payment of your child benefits on an account”) and return it to us completely filled out as soon as possible. By doing so, you are sure to receive your monthly payments on time!
