💡 Expert Tip for egovtschemes.com:
Many workers lose this benefit because they forget that it is not a one-time payment. To keep receiving the ₹500 every month for 3 years, you must submit a ‘Child Living Affidavit’ during the second and third years. Also, remember to renew your labor card every 3 years. If your registration expires, your scholarship payments will stop automatically!
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs):
Q: Can I apply if my child is already 1 year old? A: No. The rules strictly state that the application must be initiated within 6 months of delivery.
Q: Is the money paid in a lump sum? A: No, it is designed as a monthly support of ₹500 to help with regular expenses like milk and nutrition.
