This text was rewritten into plain language (B1 level) automatically and may contain errors. Only the official German statute is authoritative — when in doubt, read the original text below or consult a lawyer.
When do your benefits start?
The point in time when you start receiving benefits under §§ 3, 4, and 6 AsylbLG follows § 18 of the Twelfth Book of the Social Code (SGB XII).
This means: Benefits start from the moment the office learns about your need. You should contact the office as early as possible.
Zur Bestimmung des Zeitpunkts des Einsetzens der Leistungen nach den §§ 3, 4 und 6 ist § 18 des Zwölften Buches Sozialgesetzbuch entsprechend anzuwenden.
