Presentation of a new financial support
On March 10, the Generalitat de Catalunya launched an initiative that seeks to help people between the ages of 36 and 64 to face the costs of rent. Applications will be open until April 11 at 2pm.
Objective of help
The Minister of Territory, Housing and Ecological Transition, Sílvia Paneque, emphasized that this program is a measure designed to minimize the risk of social exclusion among families with limited income. This help is presented as an essential tool for ensuring decent housing.
Conditions for access to aid
General requirements
To access the aid, applicants must meet various requirements, including having the legal residence in Catalonia and being in the specified age range. In addition, it is imperative that the coexistence unit has regular income that does not exceed 25,200 euros per year.
Maximum rental allowed
The grants are up to 200 euros per month, with a minimum of 20 euros. However, the exact amount depends on the rent paid by the beneficiary, who does not have to exceed certain thresholds according to the demarcation.
Details about rental amounts
The rental limits vary depending on the location. For example, in the metropolitan area of Barcelona, the maximum is 900 euros, while in other demarcations such as Girona or Tarragona, the limits are 750 and 700 euros, respectively.
Application Procedure
Those interested can submit their application electronically through the Gencat housing portal or in person in the corresponding offices. Several documents will need to be provided, including the current DNI and the rental agreement.
