By Decision no. 66 of 3 March 2025, the panel for the resolution of legal issues within the High Court of Cassation and Justice has ruled that childcare allowance may be recalculated after the child has reached the age of 2 (or 3 in the case of a child with a disability) if the parent obtains, under a final decision, additional salary income for the relevant period.
Thus, the supreme court has ruled that this income must be taken into account when recalculating the allowance, as it reflects the work actually performed, even if it was granted retroactively. The recalculation can be made upon request, subject to the legal threshold amount, and is not dependent on the fact that the period for granting the allowance has ended.
