Poland sets June 30 deadline for 800+ family benefit applications

Parents in Poland have until June 30 to submit electronic applications for the 800+ family benefit for the 2026/2027 payment period. Applications received after the deadline will not include the June payment; the benefit will start from the month of submission.

The Social Insurance Institution (ZUS) has already processed 4.2 million applications covering 6.2 million children. In the Lesser Poland region, nearly 397  thousand applications were filed for 622  thousand children. Applicants must use the mZUS app, eZUS portal, online banking or the Emp@tia portal; only bank‑account payments are possible.

Applicants who submitted by the end of April received continuous payments in June, those who applied in May will receive payments up to the end of July, and June applicants will be paid through August. New‑born children have a three‑month window from birth to apply.
