According to statistics, more and more people are receiving Housing Benefit, but still only about a quarter of households are eligible due to their low incomes (according to the statistics from 2021 — but in July 2023, according to the MLSA, only 250,000 households out of about a million with low incomes were still drawing the Benefit)

 Are you thinking of applying for the Benefit, but are afraid that you are not entitled to it? Have you read contradictory information on the internet and are not familiar with it? Or have you even submitted a Benefit successfully?

Come to the INN public meeting on Thursday, October 12th, at the Žižkov Punctum! The topic of housing benefits won’t be just presented as the “expert advises and others listen” style. On the contrary!
 we will summarize the latest information
 share with each other what has worked for you or others, or what to avoid
 summarise the results and write them up for others
