Sergio Massa announced it there will be an improvement in family allowances, a benefit which includes more than 4 million children of official workers.

Among those measures, as he was able to discover Clarionedue to the strong delay they drag in the face of inflation, a climbing stairs and peaks which give the right to collect that plus. which ranges from $ 1,540 to $ 7,332 per month, depending on income.

This decision will be taken because it is leading to the failure to update the scales and ceilings many official workers are stopping loading family allowances or are climbing the ladder and perceive a lower value.

What happens is the individual income or family income values ​​that qualify for that benefit are updated annually in March, according to the evolution of the Average Taxable Remuneration of Stable Workers (RIPTE) between October of the two immediately preceding years.

The latest update corresponded to the variation of October 2021 vs October 2020 and showed 50.62%, which it was applied in March. Meanwhile, from October 2021 to June 2022, the RIPTE increased by 44.85%. And the stairs and stops remained in the same values.

A) Yes, the family group income cap (IGF), which was $ 210,278 and the individual who amounted to $ 105,139, rose to $ 316,731 and $ 158,366 respectively in March. Y It remains unchangeddespite the increase in RIPTE.

This implies that the children of all workers who receive up to $ 158,366 are covered by the family allowance. But “if a member of the family group receives a gross amount in excess of $ 158,366, is excluded from the collection of family allowances for the family unit “, ANSeS explains.

These values ​​remain unchanged for one year, in the same way as the scales that give the right to the payment of differentiated benefits, decreasing according to the salary levels. For example, in the case of the family salary per child decreases from $ 7,332 to $ 1,540 per child. The lower stairs have a monthly supplement per child.

So whoever gets a pay raise or improves their income, has a nominal reduction in profit and if it exceeds the maximum limit stop charging directly family allowances. Here’s what’s going on.

Instead, the amounts of family allowances are adjusted every 3 months, according to the mobility formula, but not the scales and ceilings that give the right to receive this benefit.

Last year, due to rising inflation with the freezing of ceilings, about 900,000 childrengirls and adolescents, corresponding to more than 600,000 employees in dependent and / or mono-tax relationships, they had stopped charging appropriations for exceeding the limit (s).

In March of this year, when the values ​​were updated, they received the appropriations again, but since then the loss in the collection of the benefit has been repeated.

The annual update with an estimated inflation of around 80/90% implies the progressive loss of the possibility of collecting the benefit. To ensure that the worker does not lose the bonus, it is advisable to update the pay scales of the different segments that give the right to pay at least every 3 monthsfollowing the trend in inflation and / or wages.

Although they are adjusted quarterly on the basis of quarterly pension mobility, the values ​​of the family salary per child They are decreasingvery low e they do not cover the basic needs of a minor.
