Au pair: New rates for the daily allowance (pocket money) and amount to help finance Danish language classes take effect on 1 January 2021
For applications submitted on 1 January 2021 and onwards the rate for the monthly allowance (pocket money) is expected to be DKK 4,550 and the amount to help finance Danish language classes is expected to be DKK 18,000.
The application’s submission date determines which rate applies to your application.
The submission date is the date when the application has been
- received at a diplomatic mission or application centre
- received at a police station or in SIRI’s branch office
- received by SIRI as physical post or email
- submitted online
The submission date is therefore independent of when you begin to fill in the application form or sign the application. That is, if the application process was begun in December 2020, but the application was only submitted in January 2021, the rates for 2021 will apply.
