Mothers' pension 2025: Get up to 118 euros per child!

In northern Germany there are exciting news for mothers who are preparing for their pension. From July 1, 2025, the mother's pension will be increased, which is particularly important for parents of children born before 1992. As the Deutsche Rentenversicherung Oldenburg-Bremen has highlighted in its current report on Nord24, the recognition of the childhood education periods is raised at three pension points, which corresponds to around 118 euros per month.

Currently, three pension points apply to children who were born after 1992, while only 2.5 points have been counted for older years so far. From July 2025, however, these should also be adjusted to three points. This is gratifying, because then mothers receive additional financial support to appropriately reward the educational times.

mother's pension actively apply for

An important point to consider: The mother's pension must be actively requested and is not automatically taken into account in the pension information. You can easily apply for them online using the V0800 form at Deutsche Rentenversicherung. It is also recommended to submit the application if the youngest child is ten years old. In this way, all child -rearing times can be recorded in the best possible way.

But why is that important? Quite simply: the consideration of the child -rearing periods up to the tenth birthday can enhance personal income law. There are additional 92 euros per month, which can have a positive effect in old age.

educational times and credits

For children who were born before 1992, there are also good news: From January 1, 2027, mother's pension III will be introduced, in which up to 36 months of parenting times are to be recognized. This means that parents can have more educational time for these children up to half a year, which pays off at half a pension point (currently 20.40 euros). What financial impulses this can have for many mothers and fathers should be clear.

It should be noted that parents can divide the child -rearing times. This means that even fathers have the opportunity to benefit from the mother's pension if they apply for the upbringing time with a joint explanation.

help offers and advice

With all these options, it can be helpful to get support for the application. The advice centers of the German Pension Insurance in Bremerhaven are ready to help and advise. Here you can receive support both by phone and personally after making an appointment. In addition, the insurance process and pension information should be checked regularly to ensure that all pension points are recorded correctly and nobody missed anything.

The mother's pension is therefore an important topic that affects many North German families and will certainly be a positive financial relief for many due to the upcoming changes. Current developments from the field of pension insurance should therefore be accepted with due attention.
