Be careful not to confuse social home and tax home! This is the response of the National Family Allowance Fund Nathalie, a reader of MoneyVox wondering what income she must declare to the CAF for her application for an activity bonus.
Question from Nathalie, January 8
Fiscally I am still on my parents. I live with them but I work. Is their income taken into account in my application? [de prime d’activit, NDLR]?
Attention! The social home is not the tax home!cut Isabelle Brohier, head of the solidarity, integration and litigation division of the CNAF (National Family Allowance Fund), who agreed to answer a series of questions from MoneyVox readers on eligibility for this monthly bonus supplementing the small wages (see box below).
If a young person lives with his parents, this does not change anything for his individual situation.
If a young person lives with his parents, that does not change anything for his individual situation, continues Isabelle Brohier. He can apply for an activity bonus on a personal basis, whether or not he is attached to his parents’ tax household..
Nathalie not having specified her salary level, it is impossible to know what amount of bonus she can claim. But she clearly had an interest in testing the official CAF simulator to gauge its eligibility. By not informing well that his only personal case, without mentioning his parents.
