The government is helping families with children prepare for the start of school with advanced family support, the Ministry of Culture and Innovation (KIM) announced.

According to the announcement, "it is now a tradition that families receive the family support due in September at the end of August before the start of the school year."

By transferring and delivering benefits earlier, the government eases the burden of families starting school

they indicated.

The Magyar Posta will deliver the family allowance, child care allowance (gyest) and child-rearing allowance (gyet) from August 24, and the Hungarian State Treasury will transfer the family allowance to bank accounts by August 25. The earlier payment of benefits this year will help about 1,75,000 families before the start of the school year, the announcement states.
