Studying abroad

However, the conditions for this vary from country to country. Read all about studying abroad at the click of a button.
Living alone
If your child has flown the nest and started standing on their own two feet, they’ll receive the Groeipakket (child benefit) themselves.

You can read all about your rights as a “de facto family”, as it is called by law, here.
Divorce or separation
Are you and your partner separating? If this happens, it’s important to find the best solution for the children. MyFamily can help you with your Groeipakket.
