GETAD studies are carried out by the Ministry of Family and Social Services and the Presidency of Strategy and Budget.
In the new social support model for families, all eyes are on citizenship salary. In the system planned to be implemented for low-income households, the payment amount is expected to be determined according to regional needs, and the application is planned to be widespread in 2027. So, how much will the Citizenship salary be? When will salary support for families start and who will benefit?
WHEN WILL CITIZENSHIP PAYMENT BE GIVEN?
In the GETAD studies carried out by the Ministry of Family and Social Services and the Presidency Strategy and Budget Directorate, needs analyzes and pilot applications are carried out on a provincial and district basis throughout 2026. The impact analysis prepared for the system is expected to be completed in October.
Following the analysis, it is planned to determine the framework in which regions and under which headings the supports for low-income households will be implemented. After the pilot studies are carried out this year, the system is aimed to be widespread in all provinces in 2027.
HOW MUCH WILL THE CITIZENSHIP SALARY BE?
The amount of support to be provided within the scope of GETAD, which is expressed as citizenship salary, has not yet been clarified. In the new system, instead of paying the same amount to all families, it is planned to take into account the income level of the households, their family structure and the economic conditions of the region they live in.
In current social aid practices, income criteria are used, such as the monthly income per capita in the household being less than one-third of the net minimum wage. A similar income assessment is expected to be implemented within the scope of GETAD. However, the exact income limit and payment amount of the citizenship salary have not been announced yet.
WHO WILL BENEFIT FROM CITIZENSHIP PAYMENT?
The main target of the new system is low-income and needy households. In the evaluation, it is planned to take into account criteria such as the family's total income, the number of children under the age of 17, and whether there is a disabled or elderly person in the household.
Within the scope of GETAD, it is envisaged that support will be family-based. While it is stated that the basic needs of households may vary by region, supports are planned to be shaped according to these differences.
WHAT WILL THE CITIZENSHIP PAYMENT CONDITIONS BE?
In the system, the evaluation criteria will include the family's income level as well as whether there is a working person in the household. The aim will not only be to provide income support, but also to support families' participation in employment.
It is planned that the citizenship salary will be implemented for a certain period of time and the family's income status will be monitored during this period. It is aimed for at least one member of the family to participate in working life through job finding, job placement and vocational support. It is envisaged that income support will end when one member of the family joins the workforce.
With the implementation of GETAD, it is planned to reorganize existing social assistance programs and gather some supports under one roof.
