If your income is low, you can apply for these benefits at your local municipal office: 

• Social Benefit: Granted if the average income per person does not exceed the State Supported Income (SSI) level. The SSI is €233. 

• Compensations: For heating, hot water, and drinking water costs. 

• Conditions: This support is generally available to foreigners with a permanent residence permit or EU citizens who have lived in Lithuania for at least 3 months (this time requirement does not apply to those currently working). Foreigners with a temporary residence permit can only claim this in exceptional cases (e.g., those granted asylum or temporary protection). 

Most "child money" and other family-related benefits are available to a wide range of foreigners: 

• Child Benefit (Universal): Paid for every child under 18 (or up to 23 if they are students). 

• Birth Grant: A one-time payment made when a child is born. 

• Pregnancy Grant: A one-time payment 70 days before the due date (if the mother is not eligible for "Sodra" maternity benefits). 

If you are legally employed and pay social insurance contributions, you are entitled to the same guarantees as Lithuanian citizens: 

• Sickness Benefit: If you fall ill and have the required insurance record (usually 3 months within the last 12 months). The minimum benefit  is approximately €281. 

• Unemployment Benefit: If you lose your job and register with the Employment Service. 

• Maternity, Paternity, and Child Care Benefits: Based on your salary and accumulated insurance records. 

These are non-monetary forms of assistance provided by municipalities or NGOs: 

• Information and Counseling: Help navigating the system. 

• Social Care: For persons with disabilities or seniors. 

• Home Care: Food delivery and assistance with daily household tasks. 

• Conditions: Permanent residents, as well as foreigners granted temporary protection or asylum, are entitled to these services.
