Application for the subsidy for students from low-income families enrolled in the classic or general secondary education system
Last update
Summary:
Depending on your income, you may be eligible for financial assistance from CePAS for the purpose of purchasing school supplies and contributing to expenses for extracurricular activities and activities outside of school.
Under certain conditions, students attending a classic or general secondary education school in Luxembourg may receive financial support from the Psychosocial and Scholastic Assistance Centre (Centre psycho-social et d’accompagnement scolaires - CePAS): the low-income household subsidy.
This subsidy is granted for the purpose of purchasing school supplies and contributing to expenses for school and extracurricular activities.
The amount of the subsidy is based on your household's net income and the number of dependent children at the time of submission of the application.
Who is concerned
You can apply for the subsidy offered by the Psychosocial and Scholastic Assistance Centre if:
- your child is a student in full-time schooling or in a concurrent education programme in the general or classic secondary-education system, registered in a Luxembourg public secondary education establishment or in a contractual private education establishment applying the Luxembourg public education curriculum or in a competence centre for specialised psycho-pedagogy;
- you have a low income;
- you receive a family allowance for your child attending school.
The application for the subsidy must be filed by the person who is responsible for the student.
In case of joint parental authority and alternating residence of the child, you are free to decide which of the parents will submit the application.
Prerequisites
To apply for financial assistance, you must:
- be a natural person;
- be of legal age on the date the application is submitted;
- live with the student in question and hold parental authority over them;
- belong to a household living below the low-income threshold.
Deadlines
You must return the duly completed and signed application to the Psychosocial and Scholastic Assistance Service (SePAS) of the school where your child is enrolled, before 31 October of the school year for which you are applying for the subsidy.
SePAS will decline any applications that are made after this deadline or that do not meet the income conditions.
How to proceed
Submitting the application
You can collect the financial aid application form at the Psychosocial and Scholastic Assistance Service (SePAS) of your child's school from the beginning of the school year. The form is a questionnaire to be filled in.
You must send a separate application for each dependent child.
You must renew your application each year. These aids are not granted automatically.
Supporting documents
You must include the following supporting documents with your application:
- a certificate attesting the payment of a family allowance (September) or, failing that, a copy of the extract from the September payment of a family allowance for all dependent children;
- a recent certificate of affiliation from the Joint Social Security Centre (CCSS) that covers the current year from 1 January. Both you and your spouse/partner/cohabiting partner must present this certificate. You can request it:
- online via MyGuichet.lu;
- on the CCSS site;
- by phone on (+352) 40 14 11;
- online via MyGuichet.lu;
- income statements for June, July and September for yourself, your spouse/partner/cohabiting partner and the student. If you do not have the statement for September, please attach the certificate for May (you must provide the same months for all members of the household);
- if you are self-employed, a farmer, a winegrower and/or a parental assistant:
- a copy of the 'income certificate' from the Joint Social Security Centre; and
- the account statement summary statement from the CCSS covering the months of May to September; or
- the most recent income certificate issued by the Luxembourg Inland Revenue (Administration des contributions directes);
- if applicable, a certificate of enrolment in post-secondary education (BTS, university, college) for the student's siblings;
- a bank account identification document in the applicant's name.
The Psychosocial and Scholastic Assistance Centre (CePAS) or the Psychosocial and Scholastic Assistance Service (SePAS) may request any other additional information or supporting document. You must supply all these elements to ensure the proper processing of your application.
Processing the application
The Psychosocial and Scholastic Assistance Centre (CePAS) will send you its decision and inform the Psychosocial and Scholastic Assistance Service (SePAS).
If the application is rejected, the Psychosocial and Scholastic Assistance Centre will inform you of the reasons for its decision and of the appeal procedures and deadlines.
Makeup of the financial assistance package
The financial aid is paid in a single instalment in April of the current school year.
The conditions for granting the subsidy for low-income households and its amount are determined according to a social index, calculated on the basis of:
- the composition of your household (the one in which the student lives) ;
- the net income of your household (only your income, that of your spouse/partner/cohabiting partner and that of the student are taken into account).
For the calculation of the social index, the student is considered to be:
- a child, if they live with their mother or father or with any other natural person on whom they are dependent;
- an adult if they live alone or in a partnership, with or without dependent children, and are not eligible for the stay-in-school subsidy.
