INFLATION BONUS 2022. Nearly 11 million households are preparing to receive the exceptional back-to-school bonus of 100 euros. When ? What conditions? We take stock.
[Mis à jour le 12 septembre 2022 à 08h09] There are only a few days left to wait before the payment of the exceptional back-to-school bonus. This bonus, also called inflation bonus, was voted in the context of the purchasing power law to support the most modest households in the face of inflation (5.8% in August over twelve rolling months). It will be distributed by bank transfer, without any action on the part of the beneficiaries. Paying agencies such as Pôle Emploi for job seekers or the Crous for students already know your bank details. No need to contact them, the 10.8 million households will receive their premium automatically. The payment date is set for Thursday, September 15, 2022. The amount is 100 euros plus 50 euros for each additional dependent child. As a reminder, here is the list of people concerned by the payment of the inflation bonus:
- RSA beneficiaries
- AAH beneficiaries
- APL beneficiaries
- ASS beneficiaries
- Aspa beneficiaries
- Scholarship students
The new aid to fight against inflation and supposed to strengthen the purchasing power of the French desired by Elisabeth Borne will be paid directly into the bank account of the beneficiaries, from the start of the 2022 school year! The 10.8 million households concerned should see a bank transfer appear from September 2022. From now on, the exact date has been set by the executive: the payment will take place on September 15, 2022.
The emergency aid desired by Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne aims to help “the most modest“. Beneficiaries of certain social benefits such as APLthe RSAl’AAH or theBlade will benefit from it from the start of the 2022 school year. In reality, it is the poorest French people who will be able to benefit from this new inflation bonus or food emergency bonus at the start of the 2022 school year, i.e. 14 million people. This exceptional back-to-school assistance will also benefit the scholarship students and to the beneficiaries of theASS.
The amount of this new Borne inflation premium will reach 100 euros plus 50 euros per additional dependent child. “In concrete terms, the aid will amount to 200 euros for a household with two children” indicates the executive in his press kit.
The recomposition of the National Assembly could slightly delay the government’s intervention concerning the final details of the inflation bonus of 100 euros paid in the fall of 2022. In particular concerning the paying bodies. For the time being, we do not know who pays the inflation bonus according to the status of the beneficiaries. Referring to the paying agencies for the first inflation bonus distributed to 38 million French people at the start of the year, here is who from the Caf or Pôle Emploi, for example, will pay the new inflation bonus. For the moment, no decision has been made:
- Caf : recipients of social minima
- Employment center : jobseekers
- Scholarship students : Crous
- Officials : Etat
- Retired : CNAV
- Employees : employer
- Independents : Ursaf
Recipients of the active solidarity income (RSA) will indeed receive the inflation bonus in the amount of 100 euros, the payment of which is scheduled for September 15, 2022. Recipients of the RSA will also receive the increase in their allowance of 4% linked to the implementation of the purchasing power law.
