How to apply for your birth allowance?

The easiest way to apply for the birth allowance is to do it online. To do this, you need to provide us with several personal details (your contact information, your social security number, etc.).

An official document indicating the expected delivery date will be provided to you by your gynecologist, midwife, or attending physician if you have been pregnant for at least six months. After that, we take care of everything for you, especially ensuring the prompt payment of your birth allowance.

You can also send this information by email to info@brusselsfamily.be or by mail (Rue Vésale 31, 1000 Brussels).

Do I have to wait long for the birth allowance?

As soon as we receive your application, we ensure efficient and quick processing. If everything is filled out correctly, you will receive the birth allowance in your account, at the latest 2 months before the due date. We conduct 5 payment rounds per month to ensure you receive your birth allowance as soon as possible.
