Apply for subsidy for old-age insurance as a foster parent/caregiver
Description
Caregivers in full-time care (§ 33 SGB VIII) and suitable caregivers in the placement of a mentally handicapped young person (§ 35a paragraph 2 sentence 2 number 3 SGB VIII) can receive half of the subsidy for an appropriate pension. This also applies to weekly care.
The subsidy for old-age provision is granted to one foster parent. In the case of pairs of foster parents, the main caregiver (according to the assistance plan) receives the subsidy. If both foster parents are named in the assistance plan, this is usually the person with the lower volume of employment if the volume of employment of both foster parents differs. If the volume of employment is the same, the foster parents determine which of them is to receive the pension subsidy.
