Calculation of Income Limit at Welfare Level for Families in

In Delft, the income limit at the welfare level varies significantly depending on family composition, in line with the Participation Act. For a single person, it applies €1,140.71 gross per month in 2024, while for a married couple without children it rises to €1,711.07. With children? Then you receive a supplement of €308.34 for the first child and €218.94 for each subsequent child. These amounts are annually indexed by the Municipality of Delft based on the price index and national guidelines. The calculation includes the total household income, including that of your partner. Exceptions apply to alimony and student financing, which are partly not taken into account. The Municipality of Delft verifies your data via the Income Basic Register and local asset insights, often in collaboration with the Delft Wmo counter. Exceeding the norm results in a reduction percentage: 100% deduction up to 150% of the norm, thereafter 50%. Note in Delft: rent allowance and healthcare allowance are considered fictitious income, which lowers the effective limit, especially relevant for tenants in neighborhoods such as the City Center or Tanthof. For single parents with young children, Delft sometimes offers a relaxed scheme via the Youth Counter. Use the SVB calculation tool or the Municipality of Delft's online simulator for a personal calculation. Incorrect declaration can lead to recovery and fines up to €5,280.
