Child Education Allowance

HRIM 1
Viewed 1101

Sir, We dont have a component called child education allowance in the salary break up. But end of every financial year, we take a declaration from the employees who are eligible for this exemption (of 100/- per month) saying that their child is studying in _ std of ___ school and get it signed by them. Is this fine for claiming the exemption?

Thanks, HRIM

Sir, can employees claim both children tuition fees under section 80c and child education allowance of 1200/p.a.

Yes, they should be able to do so as both are different benefits. But total benefit cannot exceed total fees payment.

There should not be any issue in providing exemption for children education allowance, but you should also ask for tuition fees receipt from such employees.
