Advice on parental allowance and parental leave - Elterngeld und Elternzeit

Many parents-to-be have questions about parental allowance and parental leave. In our counselling sessions, we provide an overview of the options and answer the most important questions. Calculating the parental allowance or completing the application form are not part of the counselling and are not offered.

Please note: We receive many enquiries on this topic alone. Unfortunately, we are unable to offer counselling to many of these enquirers as our resources are limited. If this also applies to you, we would like to offer you the following alternatives:

• Your local parental allowance office,
• the website www.elterngeld-digital.de,
• the service hotline of the Federal Ministry for Family Affairs, Senior Citizens, Women and Youth in Berlin (tel:+493020179130),
• other pregnancy counselling centres in the Hannover region: www.schwangerschaftsberatung-hannover.de
• You can also contact the pro familia online counselling service in writing: www.profamilia.de/beratung/mail-beratung
