Since last Monday, some households have been able to benefit from the workers' fuel allowance, set up by the government.

A total of 10 million people are affected.

But Bruno Le Maire, Minister of the Economy, assured Europe1 that “only” three million French people had requested it.

Seven million beneficiaries are therefore still missing.

“There are people who do not come to ask for this help.

I tell them to go do it, it's a support for purchasing power, ”said the minister at the microphone of the radio.

Implementation until February 28

People with a reference tax income (RFR) of a maximum of 14,700 euros in 2021 are concerned by this aid.

This is equivalent to 1,314 euros net per month for a single person, or 3,941 euros for a couple with two children.

Classic, two-wheeled and/or electric vehicles are taken into account.

The aid represents 100 euros, paid by transfer to the household bank account.

This is equivalent to a reduction of 0.10 euro per liter of fuel "based on 12,000 kilometers per year made on average for business trips", indicated Gabriel Attal, Minister Delegate to the Minister of the Economy.

The first beneficiaries should see the arrival of aid on Friday.

It is possible to enjoy it until February 28th.



An online form to fill out

And as Bruno Le Maire explained on Europe 1, “the system is extremely simple, I have had no negative feedback from those who went to register on the site of the Directorate General of Public Finances”.

To request compensation, you must fill out a form on impots.gouv.fr with your marital status, vehicle registration and tax number.
