Hi @Mariam_1997
People with an Aufenthaltsgestattung can receive Wohngeld.
Kindergeld is only possible for citizens of the following countries who are working:
Turkey, Algeria, Tunisia, Morocco, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kosovo, Montenegro, and Serbia.
If you receive Wohngeld, you can also receive the benefits of the ‘Bildung-und-Teilhabe’ package. These are additional benefits for children in school. It provides money for the following:
Payments for school materials twice a year
- School transport
- School meals
- Class trips
- Participation in sport/culture (e.g. membership fee for a football club or music lessons)
- Private school tuition (called ‘Nachhilfe’ or ‘Lernförderung’ , if a teacher confirms a pupil needs this)
You apply for both the Wohngeld and the Bildung-und-Teilhabe supports from your local Sozialamt.
I hope this information helps you get some additional support.
Best,
Éanna
