The training allowance is a monthly payment per child between the ages of 16 and 25 who is studying or doing an apprenticeship. Important: This allowance is only granted if the child does not earn more than CHF 28,680 per year.
If the child begins further education before the age of 16, you will receive this allowance in advance.
The allowance can be granted to a child leaving abroad in an EU/EFTA country. If your child lives in a country where compulsory education ends before the age of 16, you will also receive this allowance in advance. However, this entitlement does not apply in countries where compulsory education continues to age 16 or older.
The request must be submitted to the Cantonal service for family allowances in writing by means of the official form.
