Question
I work at two jobs: in one I earn 10,000 shekels a month, and in the other 3,000 shekels a month. For various reasons, I do not want the income of 3,000 to be registered in my name, so I registered it in the name of my friend with his consent. Now the state has given a "work grant" to those who work and earn little. The question is, whose money is the grant?
Answer
Hello,
The grant belongs to the account holder, as the money is in his account.
The money does not truly belong to the salary recipient, as his salary is 13,000, so he is not actually entitled to the grant.
