A gesture for the most vulnerable days before the holiday. The Christmas bonus will be paid to more than 2.2 million related families “starting December 16”The Ministry of Labor announced on Monday evening, November 25, confirming information from Western France.
This bonus is usually paid to all RSA beneficiaries and to the unemployed at the end of their entitlement period, without them needing to request it. Last year, the amount was 152 euros for a single person, 228 euros for a couple without children, 320 euros for a couple with two children, and 335 euros for a single person with three children. In Mayotte, the premium is only half that. At this time it is not yet known the amount of payments that will be made at Christmas 2025, but in general it is stable from year to year.
To get the benefits, call back Western FranceYou must have received RSA, special solidarity allowance (ASS) or pension equivalent allowance (AER) in November or December.
The 2026 RAPBN was originally planned to only be intended for people with children, but this idea was quickly slandered by the National Assembly. The Minister of Labor, Jean-Pierre Farandou, acknowledged that this action was possible “a little aggressive”. In early November, he admitted he didn’t do it “confident that our country has the means to implement this policy with maximum generosity”call a “refocus” this device.
Debated as part of ongoing budget discussions, the measure would come into effect next year. Rejected during parliamentary debate, the law will not be implemented unless reintroduced before debate ends.
Established by Lionel Jospin’s socialist government in 1998 under pressure from the unemployment movement and continuing ever since, the Christmas bonus has so far been allocated to more than 2.2 million households benefiting from the social minimum.
