Procedure details

According to Art. 52a Para. 1 Sentence 2 AGSG (Implementation Act to the Social Laws), the respective district governments are responsible for reimbursing the costs for unaccompanied minor foreigners (umA) that the district has reimbursed to the local youth welfare organizations (districts and independent cities) in accordance with Section 89d SGB VIII. The regulation serves to concentrate all cost reimbursement regulations of SGB VIII with the districts (Art. 52 AGSG), but at the same time to completely exempt the district from costs for the group of unaccompanied minor foreigners.

The entitlement to apply for cost reimbursement in accordance with Art. 52a AGSG has existed since the introduction of Sections 42a and 42b SGB VIII on 01.11.2015. The previous nationwide breakdown of responsibility for cost reimbursement in accordance with Section 89d SGB VIII was abolished on 31.10.2015. Instead, the nationwide distribution of unaccompanied minors is carried out by the district itself.

The district can be granted an appropriate advance payment on application. This gives the district the opportunity to largely cover the expected costs in advance through monthly advance payments in order to relieve the district budget and maintain liquidity.

If reimbursement has been made incorrectly, the amounts paid must be refunded.

Examination of cost reimbursement application

After the application for reimbursement has been checked in accordance with the budgetary requirements for factual and mathematical accuracy and in compliance with the budgetary principles of economy and thrift, the reimbursement is paid out to the district - if necessary by offsetting it against the advance already granted.

There is currently no time limit for the reimbursement of costs by the district government to the district in accordance with Art. 52a AGSG in conjunction with Section 89d SGB VIII.
