Gather Your Inputs
First, identify your net income before the birth of your child. This can be found on your payslip or by contacting your employer. Make sure to use the net income, not the gross income.
Calculate the Monthly Net Income
Next, divide your annual net income by 12 to get your monthly net income. For example, if your annual net income is 40,000 euros, your monthly net income would be 40,000 / 12 = 3,333 euros.
Apply the Formula
Now, apply the formula to calculate the Elterngeld. Using the example from step 2, the Elterngeld would be (3,333 / 12) \* 0.67 = 185 euros per month (simplified example, actual calculation may vary). For ElterngeldPlus, the calculation would be (3,333 / 12) \* 0.33 \* 2 = 185 euros per month (part-time work, simplified example).
Consider ElterngeldPlus
If you are working part-time or full-time while receiving the Elterngeld, you may be eligible for ElterngeldPlus. Make sure to calculate the ElterngeldPlus using the correct multiplier (2 for part-time work or 4 for full-time work).
Avoid Common Mistakes
Common mistakes to avoid when calculating the Elterngeld include using the gross income instead of the net income, not considering the number of months you want to receive the Elterngeld, and not applying the correct formula for ElterngeldPlus.
Use the Calculator for Convenience

The Elterngeld calculator can help you avoid mistakes and provide a more accurate calculation. You can find the Elterngeld calculator on the official German government website or on other trusted websites.
