The new amounts as of 1 October

The Solidarity Rent Reduction (SRR) is a housing assistance scheme introduced since 2018 for the most vulnerable households.

To take advantage of it, you must:

  • Do not exceed a resource limit that varies according to your household and geographical area.
  • reside in a housing unit that is either a low-cost housing unit or managed by a business of mixed economy (SEM), which is eligible for personalized housing assistance (LHA).

Household dwellings and dwellings located in overseas departments and communities are not covered by the scheme.

What procedure should I take?

If you are eligible for the aid, you do not have to do any of the following:

  • you are not a beneficiary: your landlord will calculate your EPIRB.

FYI  

the monthly amount of the solidarity rent reduction shall be jointly fixed each year by the Ministers responsible for Housing and the Budget and shall apply from 1er October 2023 until December 31, 2023.
