Detailed description
If you are receiving educational assistance (BAföG), you must report any changes to your previous application information.
Some changes will result in an increase or decrease in your entitlement.
These include:
- Change due to enrollment in health and long-term care insurance.
- Change in your income
- Change in your parents' income
- Change in the income of your spouse or common-law partner
- Change in your housing costs
- Birth of your child
If your entitlement increases, you will be paid more money each month.
If there is a decrease, you will receive less money. You may have to pay back the excess BAföG.

You can do this in writing or online. You must also submit the relevant evidence with your change request.
If your entitlement has increased, you will receive an amendment notice and the increased requirement will be paid to you. The amount will also be refunded to you retroactively if you have notified all changes in good time.
If your entitlement is reduced, you will receive less BAföG from the following month. In addition, it will be checked whether you have received too much BAföG in the past, which you will then have to reimburse.
