Calculating Rent Allowance with Income-Dependent Rent
Income-dependent rent often goes hand in hand with rent allowance. This allowance compensates for rising rents for low incomes. Discover how to optimally benefit and submit applications.
Conditions for Rent Allowance
You qualify with a rent under €879 (2024), income up to €26,000 (single), and a social housing rental. The allowance is recalculated monthly based on your actual rent and income.
Impact of Rent Increase on Allowance
With income-dependent increases, the allowance automatically adjusts via the Tax Authorities. Check your provisional calculation and request adjustments for changes.
