Availability by telephone

Under certain circumstances, the Jobcenter can provide financial support for the necessary purchase of a car. It may be necessary to buy a car when you start work: For example, if an employer promises you a job - provided you have your own car - or you can prove that you cannot get to your new job without your own vehicle. In such cases, the Jobcenter may consider covering the costs. Important; please contact your personal advisor (e.g. employment agency, case manager) and talk to them about your plans - definitely before you buy the car. This is a benefit from the so-called "placement budget" - there is no legal entitlement to it. You can obtain further information from your responsible advisor at the Jobcenter.</p

Car/car: subsidizing the acquisition costs

Your electricity costs are covered by your standard rate and must be paid to your electricity company by yourself. If you have an electricity back payment from your annual statement that you cannot pay from your own funds, you may be granted a loan. An electricity back payment is always a good opportunity to check whether and where you can save on electricity costs. It is also worth comparing providers at any time. Caritas' free energy-saving service will be happy to help you. Dortmund Hardship Fund The Dortmund Hardship Fund 2023 was set up to support people in Dortmund who have fallen on hard times due to increased energy prices and higher living costs. The fund can provide financial assistance for certain situations, such as back payments for energy costs or the replacement of necessary household appliances. For more information or to apply for support from the fund, you can contact certain social advice centers.

Schoolchildren under the age of 25 who attend a general or vocational school receive an allowance for school supplies (e.g. writing utensils, books, etc.). If pupils under the age of 25 live in your community of need, the benefit is automatically transferred to you at the beginning of each school semester with your regular citizen's allowance benefits. In addition, other so-called "benefits for education and participation (BuT)" can be applied for from the City of Dortmund. These include, for example, subsidies for school trips and lunchtime meals. Further information and application options can be found on the<a href="https://www.dortmund.de/services/bedarf-fuer-bildung-und-teilhabe.html" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank"> website of the City of Dortmund</a>.
