The 2027 dates are already settled. The Familienkasse has published its Kindergeld list for the whole year: in January, Kindergeld arrives between 8 January 2027 and 26 January 2027, depending on the last digit. The other payment days follow from the law and the calendar of bank business days. The January pension arrives on 29 January 2027, because the 31st is a Sunday; in February, 26 February 2027 is the earliest pension date of the year. Grundsicherungsgeld (formerly Bürgergeld) for January was already there on 31 December 2026, and in every month of 2027 the money for the following month arrives on the same day as the pension. Unemployment benefit for December 2026 is available on 4 January 2027, after New Year and the weekend. Housing benefit and BAföG are paid in advance, with the exact day set by the office. The table below covers every month; the tool above sorts one month by date.
