The “inflation compensation” is coming.
Olivier Dussopt, Minister Delegate in charge of Public Accounts, announced this Sunday, on France Info, that “the first payments” of this bonus would arrive “from tomorrow”, ie Monday.
Jean Castex had made the announcement of this tax-exempt allowance, which amounts to 100 euros, in October.
It was "translated into a corrective finance law, which was published on December 1" and whose "the implementing decree is published this morning," said Olivier Dussopt on Sunday.

Inflation compensation: Emmanuel Macron defends a "fair and targeted" measure
This compensation will concern “38 million people”: “employees, job seekers, students on grants or benefiting from APL, beneficiaries of minimum social benefits, retirees, farmers, self-employed workers, etc. we earn less than 2,000 euros net per month and per person ”enumerated the Minister Delegate.
Students first, retirees at the end
The first to receive the bonus will be scholarship students, for whom it will arrive "on December 13 and 14".
Within a week, it will begin to be paid to the self-employed.
"By the end of December, most of the employees in the private sector" will have seen it.
For public sector employees, it will be "at the latest" in January, the ministry said.
The calendar thus extends until the end of February and it is the retirees who will close the ball.
This "inflation allowance" had been rebutted by the Senate - dominated by the right-wing opposition - which preferred more targeted measures.
The bonus was finally adopted definitively by Parliament at the end of November, following a vote in the National Assembly (majority LREM).
