Formula and scope

Regular 2026 applications use 2025 income and assets at 1 June 2025. Work grants use the official table, with total income below KRW 22/32/44 million for single/single-earner/dual-earner households. Assets at least KRW 240 million exclude payment; at least KRW 170 million halves it. Child grants require income below KRW 70 million; shown as KRW 500,000–1,000,000 per child.

What this calculator cannot apply

Child grants show a single maximum only up to gross qualifying pay of KRW 21 million (single-earner) or 25 million (dual-earner); otherwise a range, not the precise bracket table. Prior child tax credit is subtracted before asset reduction. Nationality, professional/high-monthly-pay exclusions, child eligibility, asset valuation, minimum-payment adjustments, debt offset, late reduction and half-year settlement are not determined. This is not an eligibility decision.
