A new state social assistance benefit was introduced as of 1 October 2025 to unify four existing benefits: housing allowance, housing supplement, living allowance and child allowance. This is provided for in the new Act on State Social Support. Instead of four applications, a household only submits one, which can be completed online. Eligible for the benefit are households with an income below 1.43 times the subsistence minimum. Any adult (fully competent) household member can apply for the benefit. More information is available here and here.
