            • 2 Income The child benefit is paid taking into account the ‘equivalent family income’. Equivalent family income is defined as the total actual or imputed income from all sources of domestic and foreign origin, before tax, after social security contribution deductions, excluding benefits not counted towards taxable income, of all family members, divided by the equivalence scale. For the purpose of determining beneficiary households, three categories of equivalent household income have been set out, as follows: a) Category A: Up to EUR 6 000, b) Category B: EUR 6 001 to 10 000, c) Category C: EUR 10 001 to 15 000. Depending on the category of equivalent household income, the benefit amounts are as follows: Category A: Up to EUR 6 000, • EUR 70 per month for the first dependent child • an additional EUR 70 per month for the second dependent child • an additional EUR 140 per month per dependent child from the third dependent child onwards. Category B: EUR 6 001 to 10 000, • EUR 42 per month for the first dependent child • an additional EUR 42 per month for the second dependent child • an additional EUR 84 per month per dependent child from the third child onwards. Category C: EUR 10 001 to 15 000. • EUR 28 per month for the first dependent child • an additional EUR 28 per month for the second dependent child • an additional EUR 56 per month per dependent child from the third child onwards. Prior to each payment, the income is re-checked on the basis of the amended E1 declarations of all family members participating on the A21 and the benefit is recalculated.

            • 3 Establishment Applicants must have resided in Greece permanently for the past five (5) years, except in the case of foreign citizens, who must have resided legally and permanently in the country for the past 12 years. Proof of the permanent and legal residence in Greece of the benefit applicants shall be provided by way of submission of an income tax return for each tax year. Income tax return submission means the income tax return that was filed during the year in which the deadline for submitting it was set, and not the submission, after the end of the year in which the above deadline was set, of an income tax return of a previous tax year. The dependent children are in Greece, unless their absence is due to their studying at recognised tertiary or higher education institutions abroad.

The latter is considered to be the case where the dependent child is not obligated to repeat the same year due to their number of unjustified absences.
