Family AG
A family AG was an extended I-AG through the employment of family members .
The so-called Ich-AG or Familien-AG was introduced with effect from January 1, 2003 as a new form of self-employment based on the recommendations of the “Modern Services on the Labor Market” commission for a three-year trial phase ( Hartz 2 ).
Family AG was a catchphrase for the fact that a self-employed person who, as an I-AG, received a business start-up grant according to Section 421l SGB III , employed family members, but no other employees. Initially, as of January 1, 2003, the prerequisite for entitlement to the start-up grant was that the start-up had no employees; the employment of family members who worked with us in the sense of expanding the Ich-AG to a family AG, however, was harmless.
After only seven months, however, the negative requirement of not being able to employ any workers was lifted retroactively from January 1, 2003 by the Small Business Promotion Act. This made the exception for working family members and thus the term family AG obsolete.
The family itself as a community had no claim of its own to the start-up grant, only the founder, from whom the family company was derived as a term.
