Anyone who is entitled to child benefit can now complete the entire application process electronically.
The Elster certificate makes it possible.
Many families can look forward to this innovation: Parents who are
entitled to child benefit
can now easily apply for it online.
Because from now on, the entire application process for child benefit works electronically, as the Federal Employment Agency reports to the German Press Agency (dpa).
Without printing: You can now apply for child benefit online
The Elster certificate makes it possible: It replaces the signature by hand, so the application can only be initiated with a mouse click, according to the report.
Previously, parents could already fill out the child benefit application online.
However, you would still have had to print it out, sign it and submit it afterwards.
So now this effort is no longer necessary for the parents concerned.
This not only saves you paper, but also time.
