The housing subsidy for military personnel has been suspended. What documents are needed for a housing subsidy for military personnel? With changes and additions from
Creating suitable living conditions for the military is part of government policy. The traditional queue for an apartment has been replaced by new forms of social support - subsidies and mortgages. In these cases, the needy person has the opportunity to receive partial or full payment for housing at the expense of the state.
Military housing subsidy and its distinguishing features
A special state subsidy provides an opportunity for servicemen to acquire not only a new or secondary apartment, but also a private house, a building plot, etc. Allocation of funds from the federal budget is targeted and is carried out in a non-cash way. This means that the received subsidy can only be used for the purchase (or partial payment of the cost) of housing.
Subsidizing housing for military personnel is in essence (creating financial conditions to improve housing conditions) similar to mortgages, but there are differences between them. The difference is as follows:
- Housing subsidy for the military - issued on a gratuitous basis (does not require a refund) and is a full compensation of the required amount for housing in accordance with the approved standards. It can be provided for seniority, retirement or retirement. The state regulates the amount of allocated funds, depending on the size of the family and the length of service. A soldier can supplement the subsidy provided with his own finances (for example, maternity capital) and purchase housing of a larger area.
- Military mortgage - implies participation in an accumulative program (from 3 years) and compensation by the state for part of cash payments for housing. It is convenient for those who continue to serve in the Armed Forces, because upon dismissal, in some cases (for example, with less than 10 years of service), you will need to reimburse all spent budget funds.
Who is supposed to
According to the current legislation, the housing subsidy is designed for citizens of the Russian Federation, contract employees, or dismissed from the ranks of the Armed Forces. At the same time, the recipient of the subsidy must:
- Have at least 10 years of service. This length of service applies to those dismissed for special reasons (for health reasons, retirement, etc.). For most military personnel, the minimum required seniority is twice that.
- To be recognized as needing better living conditions. Minimum living space statutory requirements are listed below.
Legal regulation
The current legislation from different sides considers the issue of subsidizing housing conditions for servicemen. The main legislative documents on this issue are:
- Housing Code of the Russian Federation - it says about the right of Russian citizens to housing and the rules for recognizing them as needing to improve living conditions.
- Federal Law No. 76-FZ "On the Status of Servicemen" dated 05/27/1998 - the right of the military to receive housing is declared.
- Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 512 dated 06/29/2011 - provides a list of documents and a sample application for recognizing a serviceman in need of housing.
- Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of October 23, 2013 No. 942 - defines the rules for paying for housing that exceeds the established standards for area.
- Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of 03.02.2014 No. 76 - the conditions for calculating the subsidy provided are regulated.
- Order of the Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation No. 510 of July 21, 2014 - the procedure is determined according to which a housing subsidy should be provided to military personnel.
Grounds for obtaining
The set of circumstances according to which a soldier can apply for housing subsidies are given in Law No. 76-FZ. These include persons:
- Those who signed a contract for military service before 01.01.1998. An additional condition here is the documented need to improve housing conditions.
- Those who have served more than 10 years and were dismissed for health reasons, downsizing or reaching the age limit with the provision of departmental housing.
- Those with over 20 years of service and using office space.
- Dismissed from military service with a length of service of 20 years or more, who do not own any housing, or who own a room with an area less than the standard.
A separate category is made up of the widows of the military who died in the line of duty. According to the law, the right to receive a military subsidy for housing extends to them, and, moreover, taking into account the share of the deceased spouse. At the same time, the wife of the deceased should not own real estate or own living space less than the established standards.
The procedure for providing housing subsidies to military personnel
Registration of state assistance for the purchase of housing implies the recognition of a person in need of improvement in living conditions. The general procedure for financing the military is enshrined in Law No. 76-FZ and Resolution of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 512. The provision of budgetary funds is as follows:
- A soldier (in the event of his death - a widow or an adult child) submits an application to the Regional Department of Housing with a request for a housing subsidy and informs about the current living conditions (gives the footage of the living space, family composition, etc.). The official appeal is supplemented by a package of documents (its composition is discussed below).
- The department checks the information received - a request is made to the Federal State Registration Service (Rosreestr) about the applicant (or his family members) owning real estate. If necessary, other information is collected, for example, the period of military service is specified. The law gives 10 days for this.
- After completing the verification, the Regional Office decides on the allocation of budget funds to the applicant or refusal to do so. This must also be done in 10 days. Legally permitted reasons for refusal are the identification of the facts of the applicant's ownership of unspecified real estate or other grounds on which he no longer needs to improve his living conditions.
- If a positive decision is made, information about this is transferred to the financial department of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation. The person in need receives a certificate within 10 days.
The package of documents that is submitted to the Regional Office (department) includes:
- Copies of passports of all family members of the applicant (duplicates of birth certificates are provided for persons under the age of 14).
- Marriage certificate.
- Documents to confirm the term of service (a copy of a military ID, an extract from the service record, etc.).
- A copy of documents confirming the availability of benefits (for example, a certificate of large families, etc.).
Terms of consideration
Taking into account all the procedures and checks carried out, with a positive decision on the allocation of a subsidy, the applicant must receive a certificate 30 days after the submission of all documents to the Regional Office (department). The specified period is the maximum permissible by law, in practice the issue is resolved faster - in 2-3 weeks.
How to calculate a serviceman subsidy
Special formulas allow you to calculate the amount of housing subsidies. Knowing the value of individual parameters, a soldier can independently make calculations and find out how much of a subsidy he can be given. The calculation is carried out according to the formula RVS = NZhP x SCM x KVL, where:
- РС - the size of the military subsidy;
- NZHP - the norm of living space for a soldier;
- SCM - the cost per square meter of housing according to the approved standards;
- KVL is the coefficient of length of service.
Living space standard for a military man and his family members
The Government of the Russian Federation has approved the norms for the provision of living space for military personnel. They vary depending on the size of the military family, and can be raised or lowered for specific situations. The table shows the value of the basic standard:
Law No. 76-FZ provides for an increase in the standard by 15 square meters. This additional space is provided:
- officers with the rank of colonel (captain 1st rank) and above;
- teachers of military universities;
- commanders of military units;
- holders of an academic degree or an honorary title.
The current legislation also allows a decrease in the norms for the provision of living space. This is possible in the following cases:
- The presence of a serviceman (or one of his family members) in the property. In such a situation, he will be able to claim only the area missing to the standard. For example, if a family of 4 has an apartment of 40 square meters (sq. M), then by law it is entitled to 18 sq. M. mx 4 people - 40 sq. m = 32 sq. m.
- Absence of a written obligation to terminate the social tenancy agreement for the provided departmental living space. The principle of reducing the standard is similar to the previous paragraph.
- If in the previous 5 years a soldier (or one of his family members) made civil transactions aimed at alienating the available living space, because of which it has decreased. In this case, when calculating the need for housing, the original (pre-sale) number of square meters is used.
Baseline average market value of housing
The price per square meter of living space used in calculations is determined annually by the Ministry of Construction of the Russian Federation. These indicators differ across the regions of our country. The table shows the basic value of the average market value of residential space in certain regions of Russia for 2019:
Length of service adjustment factor
The length of service directly affects the amount of the subsidy allocated. In the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 76, special correction factors are given that regulate the total amount depending on the length of service. Knowing the necessary values, you can calculate the housing subsidy for military personnel using the above formula. The table shows the value of the correction factor for different length of service and the amount of allowance that a military family from the Moscow region can apply for in 2019:
Military experience, years |
Correction factor value |
The amount of the allowance for a family of a serviceman of 2/3 people, rubles |

5 148 266 / 5 883 732 |
||
5 434 280 / 6 210 606 |
||
2.45 + 0.075 for each year of service over 21 (with a maximum value of 2.75 - this corresponds to 25 years of service) |
For 25 years of experience - 6 292 325/7 191 228 |

Registration N 33301
From January 1, 2014, military personnel may be provided with a housing subsidy instead of housing. We are talking about persons in need of housing who have entered into a contract for military service before January 1, 1998 (except for cadets) or have served 20 years or more, as well as those dismissed from military service due to age, health status or in connection with organizational staff activities with a general duration of military service 10 years or more.
What to choose (housing or subsidy) is up to the soldier himself. The procedure for allocating subsidies has been regulated.
To receive money, you must submit an application to the authorized body of the Ministry of Defense of Russia, attaching an agreement on opening a bank account to it. The specified body independently requests from Rosreestr information about the availability of real estate from a soldier.
In the absence of grounds for removing a person from the register as needing housing, a decision is made on the allocation of a subsidy, a copy of which is handed to the serviceman. The money is transferred to his bank account. They can only be spent on the purchase or construction of a dwelling.
After the transfer of the subsidy to the account of the soldier is removed from the register as in need of housing.
In the event of the death (death) of military personnel (citizens dismissed from military service), members of their families can receive a subsidy.

What is a housing subsidy - a monthly allowance or otherwise Lump sum payment for the purchase or construction of a dwelling (hereinafter referred to as a housing allowance) for military personnel and how to calculate it.
He also held a meeting of an interdepartmental group at which he coordinated issues on housing subsidies with all interested departments.
-What documentary confirmation of the EDV for housing for the military exists today.
Taking into account the great interest among the military in innovations in this important issue (after all, this is almost the only benefit that has not yet been canceled), we have made a mortgage allowance calculator for military housing - housing subsidies posted on this page, which is based on the above information.
Now everyone interested will be able to calculate a subsidy - a lump sum payment for the purchase or construction of a dwelling
We understand that the data obtained from the HAL calculator - housing subsidies are not final and it is likely that the Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation may still adjust the order, but the military should have an idea of what awaits them. For our part, we promise to update the calculator so that the calculation of a one-time cash payment - a housing subsidy for the acquisition or construction of housing by military personnel - remains relevant.
The Russian Federation assumes additional responsibilities for providing housing officers for career officers. One of the ways of such provision, in accordance with Federal Law N 76-FZ "On the status of military personnel" as amended on 02/03/2014. At the same time, of course, subsidies are not the only way to support officers in the "housing issue", but it plays a very important role. For many military personnel, it is the housing subsidy that is a more attractive way to purchase their own housing than, for example, a military mortgage. What is it like, housing subsidy for the military 2015? How to start the design? And how fast will the result be? Let's figure it out in order.
What is a military housing subsidy?
The housing subsidy for the military is of a non-cash monetary nature. Issued at a time and once. It was introduced as an alternative to the priority given to the provision of permanent housing for career officers and servicemen transferred to the reserve. The subsidy is a social benefit, issued by a certificate that entitles you to a preferential purchase of housing.
The military housing subsidy is a certificate for a certain amount. This amount is allocated by the state at the expense of the federal budget for housing for the family of a particular officer. Having such a certificate in hand, the officer can use it to purchase an apartment or house. In addition, these funds can be invested in their construction. At the same time, there are no restrictions on what kind of housing - primary or secondary, housing subsidies will be spent.
The housing subsidy for the military allows you to significantly save time to get your own housing, is provided without queuing and allows you to invest in any housing. The main thing is to prove your right and arrange everything correctly.
Who can qualify for a housing subsidy?
In the Order of the Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation of July 21, 2010, No. 510, it is said that the following can apply to receive support for purchasing housing or improving housing conditions:
Officers and warrant officers who entered into a contract for military service before January 01, 1998 (except for cadets of military universities), if they and their families are recognized as in need of housing;
Officers and warrant officers dismissed from military service for health reasons or for redundancy, as well as upon reaching the age limit. Provided that they managed to serve under a contract for 10 or more years. Only if they are recognized as needing better housing conditions. Or if they used company housing;
Officers and warrant officers who served 20 years, who used service housing.
I must say that Federal Law 360-FZ of November 24, 2014, amended the procedure for obtaining subsidies. The amendments affected Article 15 "On the status of military personnel" on the right to choose the type of housing provision. In particular, the subject composition has been adjusted to receive subsidies for the military for the purchase of housing. In particular, for the category “dismissed from military service and in need of better housing conditions” for citizens recognized as needing housing before January 1, 2005 or recognized after January 1, 2005, if this was related to forced relocation, the requirement for mandatory service life of 10 years. But the corresponding changes have not yet been made to the Order of the Minister of Defense No. 510.
Benefits of a housing subsidy for the military
The housing subsidy has many advantages over other methods of targeted housing support for the military:
1. You can buy ready-made or housing under construction in an apartment or private house;
2. The right to a subsidy arises immediately after the officer reaches the conditions specified by law;
3. Together with the subsidy, you can use other concessional capital for the purchase of new housing;
4. The housing subsidy is progressive.
As for the possibility use other capital together with the subsidy , it should be clarified that this applies to any other subsidies or benefits provided to the soldier or his family. Namely, maternity capital, preferential mortgages. After all, a housing subsidy for the military is their legal right, therefore, they can use it at their own discretion, provided that they comply with the norms of the Order of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation No. 510 dated July 21, 2014. To achieve service under a contract of required length of service or after retiring. At the same time, the amount of the subsidy will increase with the duration of military service.
In addition, the soldier himself may not even be asked if he needs a subsidy and assign it without his consent. For example, if a soldier refused housing offered to him at the place of service or at his chosen place of residence after being retired. Or if a soldier expressed a desire to change his place of residence after being transferred to the reserve and handed over the housing allocated to him.
How a soldier is recognized as needing housing
According to the rule of Federal Law No. 76-FZ, a serviceman can be recognized as needing housing by the executive authorities at the place of their service. The reason for this is Article 51 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation and the Procedure established by the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of June 29, 2011 N 512.
To obtain status in need of housing a serviceman must write a statement of the established form and send it to the housing department under the executive branch of the constituent entity of the Russian Federation along with additional documents:
1. A copy of the personal passport and a copy of the spouse's passport and birth certificates of the serviceman's children;
2. Extract from the service record and a certificate of the duration of military service;
3. A copy of the marriage certificate or a copy of the divorce certificate;
4. Extract from the house book at the place of residence, copies of personal accounts for 5 years preceding the submission of documents;
5. Copies of other documents confirming the right to improve housing conditions.
The decision on the issue of recognizing a soldier in housing is taken within 30 days from the date of application. The result is reported in writing at the address of residence.
How the military housing subsidy is calculated
It is noteworthy that there are two decrees of the Government of the Russian Federation at once, determining how to calculate the housing subsidy. The first of them - Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of February 3, 2014 No. 76 establishes the procedure for calculating housing subsidies in accordance with the standard for the total living space and the standard for housing per person.
The second - Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of October 24, 2013 N 942 provides for the rules for calculating housing subsidies for the military who need housing in excess of the established standard for living space.
To calculate the housing subsidy according to the standard, there is a certain formula:
P = H x C x Ks
In this formula:
H - standard for the total area of living quarters
С - the cost per square meter according to the norm in the Russian Federation
Ks - a correction factor indicating the duration of the officer's service
Example: An applicant for a grant has a family of four. The standard cost established by the order of the Gosstroy dated 18.7.2013 No. 269 is 34350 rubles per 1 sq. M. meter. The officer's service life is 18 years. For officers with such a term, a correction factor is set equal to 2.25. At the same time, the standard of living space for each family member is 18 sq. meters.
Thus: P = (18 x 4) x 34 350 x 2.25 = 5 564 700 rubles.
This amount can be further increased by 15-25 sq. M. meters, provided that the officer falls into one of the categories established in Federal Law N 76-FZ:
Has a military rank higher than colonel
Has an honorary title of the Russian Federation
Is engaged in teaching or research activities
His health condition deteriorated while serving in the Armed Forces.
At the same time, officers who have several reasons at once can use only one.
However, it is also envisaged reduction of the general standard of living space ... This can be done when a soldier or members of his family make civil transactions while living in a residential area, if they are aimed at alienating part of the housing into ownership or transferring part of it occupied under a social tenancy contract back.
If a soldier died in the line of duty or died after reaching the age limit for service, then the calculated correction factor for his family will be increased.
If a serviceman wants to purchase housing, the area of which exceeds the standards established in Article 15 of the Federal Law "On the Status of Servicemen", then a different formula applies. Or rather, two whole formulas:
1. P2 = O - H - D - Tk - when the size of the total area is exceeded
2.P = P2 х С - the amount of payment for the excess area
For example, an officer with the rank of colonel wants to increase the area of future housing to 100 square meters. meters (O in the formula). In this case, the value of H is the standard for living space. The law defines the maximum additional area for this title at 15 square meters. meters (value M in the formula).
T is the maximum size of the area, taking into account the design features of the house or apartment. In this case, T = 9 square meters. meters.
Total: P2 = 100 - 72 - 15 - 9 Total 4 sq. meter will be the excess of the area over the standard.
According to the second formula, P = P2 x C, in which C is the residual or the price set by the government contract for 1 sq. meter of area, you can get the size for payment of 4 square meters. meters received in excess of the norm. If the price is 1 sq. meter is 34,350 rubles, then the amount of the surcharge will be 137,400 rubles.
But you need to know that the provision of housing to the officer, a larger area than according to the standards, is voluntary and informative in nature. This means that the decision is made at the command level, and the applicant is notified in writing of such a possibility in each specific region of the Russian Federation during military service. In such a notice, all calculations of the cost of housing are indicated, taking into account the excess of the area. The serviceman must pay for the excess of the area within 20 days from the moment he signs an agreement on exceeding the standard area for the subsidy.
