These are one of the social assistance measures in case you no longer receive Unemployment Benefit (Arbeitlosengeld I) and you are looking for a job or you are employed, but your income is below a certain minimum limit prescribed by the law on subsistence.

 

How to get a benfit and what conditions need to be met?

By going and registering in the “Jobcentar“. Conditions to be met:

  1. Residence in Germany
  2. Ability to work (at least 3 hours a day)
  3. Income below the subsistence level (table below)

 

How much is the benefit?

 

What other benefits can you get?

 

  1. If you are the recipient of these benefits, you are exempt from the obligatory payment of Beitragsservice (ARD ZDF Deutschlandradio Beitragsservice)
  2. Jobcenter pays you accommodation and accommodation costs
  3. You can submit a request for furnishing the apartment (Erstausstattung bei Hartz IV)
  4. Once you find the apartment, you will pay the required deposit. The Jobcenter will can  pay you double the cost of rent if you move and you have to pay rent for both apartments.

Great Hartz IV sides for families and even married couples

You have come to Germany and you need help. This is one way to quickly “get on your feet”!

If you come with a family, one member needs to find a job, preferably through an agency (Zeitfirma). Once he starts working, he signs up for a Jobcenter and asks for help – all of which is listed above. If you meet the set conditions, Jobcentar can help you with at least € 2,000, and the above amount is over € 5,000.

Example

The Hartz IV benefit is approximately € 1,800 per month for a family of four. If you live in a normal place, the cost of accommodation should not exceed 700 €, the other 1100 € you have enough for all your needs.

 

Disadvantages Hartz IV

There is a lot of documentation. All income, all bills, everything is strictly recorded.
