Payment of allowances to other households in the next one to two months
The Housing Department said earlier that it was expected to issue 90,000 application forms to eligible households who have been waiting for public housing for more than three years at the end of June.
The amount of the cash allowance depends on the number of people who meet all the qualifications in the public housing application. It is 1,300 yuan for a one-person household, and 3,900 yuan for a household with six or more people.
The Director of the Transportation and Housing Bureau, Chen Fan, mentioned in the latest blog that the Housing Department has recovered 56,000 application forms. Among them, the first batch of households received cash allowances on Friday (30th), involving about 10,900 households.
The Housing Department is stepping up its processing of the remaining application forms that have been received. The goal is to provide cash allowances to eligible households in the next one to two months.
Chen Fan pointed out that the principle of "first-in, first-out" will be adopted when processing the application form, that is, the application form received first will be processed first, so that the applicant households can receive the allowance in order.
If the Housing Department fails to complete the review in the month the tenant submits the application form, the starting month for calculating the cash allowance will not be affected.
The Housing Department will make up for the amount that the tenants should have received but have not been paid when the cash allowance is first issued.
