In 2026, UBD may lose the right to an apartment if the area of the housing exceeds the norm or if they already have a suitable housing. Refusal to provide housing is possible due to hidden real estate, incorrect documents, or repeated receipt of state support. In 2026, some combatants may lose the right to an apartment from the state, even if they have the appropriate status. Also, when considering applications, the housing commission checks whether the person has used assistance before.
Who among the UBD will not be able to receive housing in 2026?
The status of a combatant in itself does not guarantee the provision of an apartment or monetary compensation, the Housing Code states. The main criterion is the need to improve housing conditions. If one person has more than the established norm of living space, usually 6-9 square meters depending on the region, they may be refused housing registration. Those who already have suitable housing will also be refused, even if it is registered for one of the family members. The commission takes into account all real estate owned by the applicant and his family.
What are the grounds for refusal or exclusion from the queue?
The reason for a negative decision can be not only the area of the housing, but also violations during the submission of documents. Among the most common grounds:
the presence of hidden real estate in another region;
submission of incorrect certificates about the composition of the family;
provision of false information about housing conditions;
previously received housing or compensation from the state;
artificial deterioration of living conditions, in particular the sale or donation of real estate before submitting the application.
If it turns out that a person has deliberately worsened housing conditions, they may not only not be registered, but also be excluded from the queue.
How are documents checked and is it possible to receive assistance a second time?
The housing commission makes a decision after analyzing the application and all supporting documents. They check information about the composition of the family, registration of the place of residence, availability of housing and actual living conditions. Data can be checked with state registers.
Important! The right to free housing or monetary compensation is granted once, according to the Ministry of Veterans Affairs. If a combatant has already used state support before, he will not be able to receive an apartment or compensation again.
How to register for housing?
To register for housing, you must submit an application to the local government body along with a UBD certificate, documents on family composition and confirmation of housing conditions. After checking, the commission makes a decision on registration or refusal, indicating the reasons.
