In this leaflet, we would like to summarise the factors that parents should consider when applying for childcare allowance and during the period of childcare benefit, so that they can make the right choice from the options offered by the legislation, according to their life situation, future plans and financial situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The colloquial term GYED extra does not actually refer to a separate benefit, but is the umbrella term for measures to help people with children return to the labour market and to allow them to claim different health insurance benefits at the same time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So you do not\/can not claim the GYED extra separately, as there is no such benefit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The law provides, inter alia, that insured parent <\/strong>who is entitled to childcare allowance have been insured for 365 days in the 2 years preceding the birth of the child<\/strong>. the father can claim the benefit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n If the parents do not have sufficient information about the possibility of the father claiming the benefit, or decide later that the father would still claim the benefit, they can exercise this right retroactively to the period before the date of the claim. In the case of a retroactive claim, the mother is presumed to have received some benefit between the first day of the benefit claimed and the date of the claim. In such a case, the mother can repay in two ways:<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n There are many reasons why parents might think about the father applying for GYED. The most common reasons are not exhaustive:<\/p>\n\n\n\n At the end of the CSED period, the mother must notify her employer in writing that she wants to take unpaid leave until the child is three years old. The absence is not conditional on the mother applying for GYED or GYES during this period, so the employer cannot make it conditional.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n As much as the possibility of the father claiming a higher benefit may seem positive, it is important to consider the longer-term impact on the mother's insurance period, her future benefits and her pension. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The father<\/strong> either staying at home with the child or working while caring for the child, provided<\/strong> remain. The mother<\/strong> but its potential needs to be considered in more detail: When considering the above, it is also worth bearing in mind that whatever the amount of the father's income, the GYED maximum<\/strong> the amount that may be assessed monthly<\/strong> up to the prevailing minimum wage<\/strong> twice 70 %-a<\/strong> can be found at<\/strong>. the ceiling for childcare allowance for 2023 is HUF 324,800 gross per month. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Moore Global, which started in a London office more than 110 years ago, is now one of the world's leading consulting and audit networks.

Parent<\/strong> of course, just as much the father as the mother (as well as the adoptive parent, the spouse living with the parent, the guardian and the person who wishes to adopt a child living in his\/her own household and who is in the process of doing so)<\/em>.
If the father meets the conditions for eligibility,<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
At any time while the benefit is being paid, the family can decide that the father will take the GYED started by the mother.<\/p>\n\n\n\nClaim procedure<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\n
The father can apply for GYED by filling in the form \u201eApplication for childcare allowance\u201d and sending it to the employer.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
If the mother is in receipt of GYED or GYES benefits at the time of the father's application, the application must be accompanied by the mother must cancel that care<\/strong>, which will be paidfor -GYED \u201eRequest for waiving childcare allowance\u201d <\/strong>on the form,<\/blockquote>
for -GYES \u201eFamily support benefit waiver\u201d <\/strong>on the form.<\/blockquote>The father can apply for GYED at the same time as the waiver.
The date of cancellation and the date of claim must be the same on the two documents, as the benefit can be claimed not only from the date of claim but also retroactively.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n\n
Retroactive claim<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
You can claim GYED backdated for up to 6 months, but not earlier than the first day on which you become eligible.<\/strong>
For example:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
(In example 1 above, the mother was receiving GYES benefits from 01.01.2023 to 28.03.2023, while in example 2 above, she was receiving GYED benefits from 01.04.2023 to 30.09.2023.)<\/em>
In this case, the so-called \u201ebenefits paid without legal basis\u201d <\/strong>which the paying employer or the relevant government agency must order the mother to repay in writing within 90 days. (Art. 66 of the Eb. tv.).<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
\n
In which cases might it be worth considering a claim for GYED by the father?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\n
If the mother is not entitled to GYED because she is not insured or does not have the necessary insurance period to qualify, she can only receive the GYES benefit of HUF 28,500 gross.
In this case the father<\/strong> as soon as possible from the age of 169 days<\/strong> can claim GYED<\/strong>, the amount of which is more favourable than the amount of childcare allowance.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
If the father wants to stay at home with the child and the mother wants to go back to work, the arrangements can be made as described above.<\/li>\n\n\n\nThe father is working before and after claiming GYED, or the mother would go back to work<\/blockquote><\/strong>
The mother wants to stay at home, but because of her higher income, the father would take GYED<\/strong>
<\/strong><\/blockquote><\/blockquote><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
What are the long-term, potentially negative aspects to consider before a father can claim GYED?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
It is important that if the family is planning to have another child, careful consideration should be given to which parent will claim which benefits, when, especially in cases where the mother would give up her own GYED benefits as an insured person!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nInsurance period<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
A During the period when child benefit is paid<\/strong>, even if the mother is not insured for lack of gainful employment, entitled to health care<\/strong>, and the time of care is included in the qualifying period for a pension<\/strong>be is.
A while receiving GYED<\/strong> the mother provided<\/strong>, which means that this period can be taken into account for your additional benefits, entitles you to health care and counts towards your pension period.
If the mother is GYES\/GYED benefit waiver,<\/strong> or does not require it, and at the same time, if<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
- For this reason, the mother obligation to pay health service contributions<\/strong> is generated. (The amount of the health service contribution from 1 January 2023 is HUF 9,600.-, HUF 320.- per day).<\/em> This only entitles you to free medical and hospital care and does not count towards your pension.<\/blockquote>
– The previously insured mother entitled to GYED <\/strong>may face additional problems resulting from a break in insurance:
- In the case of a second pregnancy, if you do not gain enough insurance time (i.e. you do not go back to work), you will not be able to claim sick pay if you are not insured.<\/blockquote>
- Your later eligibility for CSED and GYED will be called into question if you do not earn enough insurance (i.e. you do not go back to work).<\/blockquote>
- When you return to work, you will only be entitled to sick pay for the time you have worked\/leave since your return and the amount will be lower, as your continuous insurance period will be interrupted.<\/blockquote><\/blockquote><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
The amount of GYED<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
In the case of multiple children, all care should be \u201eunder one roof\u201d<\/strong>
As described above, benefits for children of different ages can be paid at the same time, i.e. a parent can claim CSED, GYED or GYES for children of different ages at the same time. (Eb. tv.<\/em> 39. \u00a7)<\/em>
Important<\/strong> rule, however, that the same beneficiary can claim benefits for each child<\/strong>, which means that benefits are \u201econcentrated in one hand\u201d. (Eb. tv.<\/em> 39. \u00a7 (5))<\/em>
For example, if the father applies for GYED, but the new child is born, the mother cannot claim CSED because the father should claim CSED - but he is not eligible.
For this reason, if the mother is entitled to CSED for the younger child<\/strong>, The mother must claim the eligible GYED\/GYES benefit for the older child, and at the same time she has the possibility to claim CSED for the newborn child.
If, in the absence of eligibility criteria the mother is not entitled to CSED for the younger child<\/strong>, only GYES, then it must be examined whether the amount of paternal GYED is higher than if the mother received only GYES for both children. Then the following options can be considered:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
GYED on-lending<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
