What are Family Allowances (Asignaciones Familiares) in Argentina?



Modified on: Mon, 16 Sep, 2024 at 4:06 PM

In Argentina, employers are required to contribute to the family allowance system managed by ANSES (National Social Security Administration).


These allowances provide financial support to employees with dependents and include:

  • Children: Payments for each dependent child under 18
  • Spouse: A small allowance for married employees
  • Schooling: An additional payment for children enrolled in school


The amount of these allowances varies based on the employee's salary, the region they live in, and the number of dependents. This system is designed to offer additional support to employees with family responsibilities.
