Anyone who is involved in the fight against the current corona pandemic in the health care system, in social institutions or in agriculture will be credited for the additional income only for the period of their activity. The German Bundestag today passed a corresponding amendment to the law. According to the current law, the total amount of earned income is credited against BAf\u00f6G for all months of an approval period.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In the current exceptional situation we must stand together and mobilise all our forces. If, for example, students with medical knowledge get involved in the healthcare system, this will be a valuable contribution to overcoming the pandemic crisis. We want to motivate young people and support them in this. To this end, we are amending BAf\u00f6G,&#8221; explained Federal Research Minister Anja Karliczek in a press release. The willingness of many students to work for our health system deserves support and recognition. It is also important, she said, that all BAf\u00f6G recipients have clarity and planning certainty in the current crisis. &#8220;If schools and universities are closed due to the pandemic, BAf\u00f6G will continue to be paid. I already clarified this in a decree a week and a half ago. Nobody should worry about their BAf\u00f6G because of the corona virus,&#8221; emphasised Karliczek.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In Germany, BAf\u00f6G regulations are changing.
