The back-to-school allowance (ARS) is an aid intended for parents who have low incomes to enable them to meet the expenses of the start of the school year. This year, around 3 million families are benefiting from this aid across the country.
In Eure-et-Loir, 19,395 families and 34,225 children are affected by this allowance, indicates Yasmina Amri, communications officer at the Caf Eure-et-Loir. According to her, the total amount paid this year in the department is 13,173,842 €.
Eligibility criteria
The family income limit varies according to the number of dependent children on July 31, 2021 and the amount of the allowance according to the age of the children. The ARS is therefore allocated to schoolchildren, students or apprentices aged 6 to 18 (for the start of the 2021 school year, the child must be born between September 16, 2003 and December 31, 2015).
How to benefit from it?
The child must be enrolled in a public or private educational institution or body, or with a distance education body, such as the National Center for Distance Learning (Cned). “For children aged 6 to 15, there is nothing to do, but families with children aged 16 to 18 must provide a sworn statement attesting that their child is still in school or in apprenticeship », She specifies. To receive the ARS in 2021, your annual resource ceiling must not exceed € 25,319 with 1 child, € 31,162 with 2 children, € 37,005 with 3 children, as well as € 5,843 more per additional child within the home.
The amount
For the start of the 2021-2022 school year, the amount of the ARS is € 370.31 for children aged 6 to 10 and younger children enrolled in CP; € 390.74 for 11-14 year olds and € 404.28 for 15-18 year olds.
