Does an asylum seeker receive EUR 1,004.50 tax-free per month? At least this is what a decision from the Rostock district is supposed to prove, which we have already reported on in great detail and which is currently making the rounds on Facebook in a new form.

Note: The notice concerns an actual case. It is not a photomontage or any other manipulation. But the presentation obviously deliberately ignores the fact that this is not a decision for an individual beneficiary, but rather one for a community of four people in need.

Asylum seekers receive €1,004.50 tax-free per month from the state!

It says:

Asylum seekers receive €1,004.50 tax-free per month from the state!
What does a German pensioner get per month from the state?
What does a German homeless person get per month from the state?
How many Germans have €1004.50 tax-free per month despite hard work????
If you also think this is unfair, please SHARE!!!

First and foremost, this is a photo of a notice that was issued by the social welfare office of the Rostock district according to its own content.
