Fingers in a fan at the beach, hiking shoes in the mountains or quiet in the countryside … everyone has their own vacation. And so that all French people can take advantage of summer, the Family Allowance Fund (CAF) and the Mutualité Social Agricole (MSA) help families with modest income. Help in the Family Holidays (AVF) and children’s vacation assistance (AVE) are allocated under resource conditions.

Only homes that can benefit from these financial boosts are notified by CAF or MSA. At the start of the year, a letter is sent to them from the secure space my recipient’s account on CAF or MSA. He specifies the exact list of the rights to which each household can claim. Remember to check your personal space well to find out if you can benefit from AVF or AVE.

Help on vacation allows you to access stays at reduced prices

AVF therefore allows you to go with your family. For this, children must be accompanied by at least one of their parent. The stay must take place during school holidays in order to benefit from this financial assistance. Eligible households can directly book one of the 4,000 stays offered on the VACAF website. Help aid is paid to the holiday center or campsite so that the beneficiaries only have a dependent rest to set up at the time of booking.

As for helping children’s vacation, it allows you to book for your children a stay in a colony labeled Vacaf or a leisure center near your home. This device works on the same principle as the first. Just select a stay in colony or summer camp directly on the Vacaf website. The family will have only one remains to be settled.

Also note that some households eligible for vacation help can benefit from transport aid for vacation. No approach is to be carried out. The amount of financial aid is automatically paid to the parents’ bank account that meets the conditions to benefit from it. The sum depends on the distance between the place of the stay and the home and the departure period.

In addition, aid is allocated to parents of 11 -year -old children in order to promote the departure in a summer camp. Its amount varies from 200 to 350 euros and is calculated according to household resources. Only homes whose family quotient is less than 1,500 euros can benefit from it. This year, children beneficiaries are those born between January 1, 2014 and December 31, 2014.
