After having tested the reform of solidarity at source in five French departments last fall, the Family Allowance Fund (CAF) will extend this new technique modeled on that of taxes for the payment of the family allowance from next March. activity and RSA to its beneficiaries.
An administrative reform for more practicality. From next March, the Family Allowance Fund (CAF) will generalize throughout France the reform of solidarity at source for the payment of the activity bonus and the RSA to its beneficiaries.
The latter consists of directly pre-filling the resource declaration forms for beneficiaries of the activity bonus and active solidarity income (RSA). With this new system, rights holders will no longer need to update their professional situation every three months on the CAF website.
The objective of this reform is to “facilitate procedures, limit the risk of errors, and ultimately, contribute to securing the income of people who are most often fragile”, specified the CAF on its website. It should make it possible to “fight against non-recourse to rights by facilitating access to RSA and the activity bonus”. Today, around a third of potential beneficiaries of the RSA and the activity bonus do not request it.
Last fall, 374,000 beneficiaries of the RSA and the activity bonus spread across five French departments (Aube, Vendée, Alpes Maritimes, Hérault and Pyrénées Atlantiques) experienced the solidarity reform at The source.
A model modeled on that of taxes
Like the income tax declaration, beneficiaries of the RSA and the activity bonus will only have to check the pre-filled information (salaries, aid, etc.) on the online form.
To obtain the various data allowing this document to be pre-filled, the CAF will rely on employers and social organizations (Health Insurance, pension funds, France Travail, etc.). Beneficiaries will be able to add an additional resource in the event of forgetting by the administration.
This administrative reform will also lead to another change since it will shift the months taken into account for the calculation of the benefit from M-1 and M-3 to M-2 and M-4, according to Capital.
