From this Friday, the French who have not received the 100 euros inflation bonus can apply if they believe they are entitled to it. A special platform has been put online and requests must be processed within ten days according to a government decree.
This was one of the main lines of the executive’s communication at the end of 2021: to collect the inflation bonus of 100 euros, no steps were taken. Employers, social assistance organizations or even pension funds were to automatically allocate it to 38 million French people with monthly incomes of less than 2000 euros net.
But while the last payment announced was made at the end of February with withdrawals, there are obviously holes in the government racket. This Friday, Prime Minister Jean Castex; the Minister of Economy and Finance Bruno Le Maire; Labor Minister Elisabteh Borne; the Minister of Health, Olivier Vran; the Minister of Higher Education, Frdrique Vidal; the Minister for Agriculture, Julien Denormandie, the Minister for the Civil Service, Amlie de Montchalin, the Minister for the Budget, Olivier Dussopt and the Secretary of State in charge of Pensions, Laurent Pietraszewski; have signed a decree which authorizes the opening of a special platform for the beneficiaries of the inflation bonus who have not been able to receive it.

A dedicated page on mesdroitssociaux.gouv.fr
A novelty, because initially, they were advised to contact directly the organization supposed to pay them the inflation bonus. To claim it now, you have to go to mesdroitssociaux.gouv.fr. A special page of the site to make the request has just been put online this Friday noon.
It suffices for applicants to update incomplete or missing information or contact details, who prevented the payment of the 100 euros. Concretely, here is the procedure to follow according to the special page of the government dedicated to the inflation bonus: After the applicant has ‘connected to France’ (via your codes impots.gouv.fr, or Ameli, etc., editor’s note), the teleservice first checks whether it has already received the compensation. If this is the case, he cannot make a request, the premium being paid only once. The tlservice then examines whether the income and information known to the tlservice allow it to be granted. If the teleservice confirms this right to compensation, it can directly complete its bank and contact details to obtain payment. If the applicant finds himself in a situation which is not handled automatically by the teleservice, the counter to which he must turn is indicated to him.

1.3million French people concerned
According to the decree, payment must be made within ten days of the filing of the request. However, there is no information on the processing time for requests in the event of a dispute between two organisations. Of the 38 million French people eligible for this bonus, 36.7 million have already received inflation compensation, Olivier Dussopt had assured in February on RMC. Around 1.3 million individuals could therefore claim the inflation bonus.
