The Elterngeld application

23 pages nobody wants to deal with.

Elterngeld (German parental allowance) isn't paid automatically. It has to be applied for: a 23-page form, payslips, certificates and decisions that are worth real money. Basis or Plus? Who takes which months?

All of it lands in the first weeks with the baby. With your voucher, the parents-to-be don't have to get through it alone.

How your voucher helps

You give it. We handle the paperwork.

Either way, the parents-to-be end up with a finished application they only need to sign and send.

Elterngeld Application Tool

They go through every question online, step by step, and the tool fills in the application with every annex.

What parents say after their application.

Really helpful service for anyone dealing with Elterngeld in Germany. The free tools were already incredibly useful, and when I had questions, I could always get help quickly. The whole process felt much less complicated thanks to Elterngeld Help. Thank you again 🙏

I had a couple of questions that I couldn't really find answers to online. Sent them over and got a helpful answer pretty quickly. That was probably the most useful part for me.

We had a slightly unusual situation because of our income and I didn't want to rely on a generic calculator. We booked a consultation and went through everything together. I came away feeling much more confident about the application.
