Military/Civil Service Child Allowance: Who Qualifies and What You Get
Learn how Emirati government employees can receive monthly stipends for their children added directly to their base salary.
This scheme provides a monthly financial payment to government employees to help cover the costs of raising children.
Who it's for
This allowance is specifically designed for Emirati government employees. This includes those working in various civil service roles as well as personnel serving in the civil defense. If you are an Emirati national employed within the federal government structure, you may be eligible for this support.
What you get
The benefit consists of a monthly stipend provided for each child in your family. Rather than a separate payment sent to a different account, this amount is added directly to your base salary, providing consistent financial support alongside your regular monthly earnings.
What it costs you
There is no monetary fee required to apply for this allowance. To complete the process, you will need to provide the necessary documentation required by your employer to verify your family status and your children's eligibility for the stipend.
The catch to know
The most important thing to remember is that the allowance does not automatically increase when your family size changes. You must take action and update your records every time a new child is born to ensure that your monthly salary correctly reflects your current number of dependents.
How to apply
- Review your eligibility as an Emirati government or civil defense employee.
- Prepare the documentation required by your specific department to prove your family status.
- Submit your request through your employer's official human resources channels to have the stipend added to your base salary.
