Other questions and answers

Will I receive a notification of the granting of aid?

Yes, you will receive a notice from the Office of the Tyrolean Provincial Government in the month of the first payment. This will state the amount and duration of the subsidy. Please make sure that your mailbox is labeled so that you can be sure to receive the notice. The average processing time is drei to four weeks.

How long will I receive the allowance?

The aid is generally granted for one year, after which you must submit a new application. If you reapply within drei months of the expiration date of the grant, the grant will be paid retroactively from the expiration date. If this period is exceeded, you will again receive the supplementary aid as of the month following the application, as was the case with the initial application. If the application is submitted within the first drei working days, the aid will be granted already in the current month.

Is the annuity subsidy automatically discontinued if the apartment is given up/sold?

No. If the apartment is sold, the change must be reported immediately to Service Unit Rent subsidy ... Failure to do so will result in the recovery of the wrongly received subsidy. Failure to provide truthful information may also result in criminal penalties (social abuse).

When do I have to report changes in family and income circumstances?

Immediately after the changes occur. If these changes are discovered ex officio, this will result in the discontinuation of the benefit. If information is obviously deliberately concealed, this may also lead to criminal consequences. Minor changes in the loan amount(s) will not be taken into account during the year, but only with the next follow-up application.
