According to the agency, the six-month period of child benefits and financial assistance granted in February 2026 to families classified as "low-income families" will expire in August. Whether the payments are extended will depend primarily on the employment status of the family's working-age members.
Under the current rules, benefits will be suspended from the following month if a working-age family member has not been formally employed during the previous six months or has refused a suitable job offered by employment services on two or more occasions.
The agency said families wishing to continue receiving support must demonstrate formal employment through one of several recognized forms.
This includes being officially employed under an employment contract, registering as an individual entrepreneur and paying taxes on time, or registering as self-employed and paying the required social tax in full.
The agency emphasized that child benefits and financial assistance are intended to support families that genuinely need state assistance.
"It is therefore important for working-age family members to secure formal employment," the agency said.
