Retirement: if you have children, here is what will change for your quarters

  • The 4 trimesters are granted to the mother for maternity
  • The 4 trimesters are to be shared between the father and the mother for education purposes (for children born from 2010).

Parents are free to share these trimesters as they wish. The couple could therefore share 2 quarters each for example or give the 4 quarters to the father. This sharing rule will change from September 1, 2023 when the 2023 pension reform comes into force.

The text includes the modification of this mode of sharing. From September 2023, the mother will have at least 2 trimesters for the education of the child. This measure is a proposal by Laurence Rossignol.

« The possibility of granting the four quarters to the father did not reflect the social impact of maternity on the careers of women and their pensions », observes the socialist senator.

Parents must choose to whom the 4 trimesters will go within 6 months after the child’s 4th birthday. Without initiative on the part of the parents, the 4 trimesters will be automatically attributed to the mother.

As a reminder, the pension reform raises the legal retirement age from 62 to 64. At the same time, it is accelerating the timetable for the Touraine reform. The current contribution period to obtain a full pension is 42 years, or 168 quarters.

By 2027, this duration will reach 43 years or 172 quarters to contribute. The increase will take place at the rate of 3 months per year. The change in the rules for sharing quarters for children has a significant impact on the pension of certain mothers.
