They have a right
Who can apply for improved housing conditions? Not all families have this right in Russia. Only certain citizens are endowed with such opportunities.
Today, people who really need to improve the quality of their housing can count on such help. Persons who do not meet certain criteria are not considered when resolving the issue being studied.
Need criteria
How to correctly determine the need? The thing is that it can be different. Therefore, an application for improvement of living conditions can be submitted to the appropriate authority under a variety of circumstances.
Among them are the following:
- The family lives in dilapidated or dilapidated housing. To do this, the apartment/house must be recognized as such.
- Citizens live with a sick person who poses a danger, or cohabitation with him makes life unbearable. Let's say, with some relative who suffers from mental illness, but on the condition that they refuse to take him for treatment.
- People whose living space does not meet the minimum square meters.
- Citizens who do not own any living space, and their place of registration does not provide the proper “squares”.
Square disputes
As we have already found out, not all citizens can submit an application to improve housing conditions in Moscow and other regions of the Russian Federation. Often, applicants are persons who do not have enough square footage in their housing. And this issue causes many problems for the population. Why?
The thing is that the regions of the Russian Federation have established their own minimum standards for living space per person. In this case, it does not play a special role whether citizens have ownership rights to the apartment. According to modern rules, not only existing property is taken into account, but also living space according to the applicant’s registration.
Most often, the criterion of need occurs if there is less than 15 m2 per person. In some regions this figure is lower, in others it is higher. But the main thing is that people who do not have a sufficient apartment size have the right to improve their housing.
Spouses
It should be noted that the Housing Legislation of the Russian Federation provides for the filing of an application for improvement of living conditions by spouses. But only if they jointly own more than 30 m2 of real estate.
In one room
The RF Housing Code provides for one interesting term. It allows children to get on the waiting list for housing. A person will also be able to receive a subsidy from the state to purchase an apartment or house.
In Russia there is such a thing as “a mother living in the same room with her son.” It is one of the components of the criteria of need.
The thing is that if in a family the mother lives in the same room with her son, then an adult child will be able to recognize himself as needy and apply for improved living conditions (a sample document will be presented a little later). And this right is granted if in total the parents have more than 30 square meters of housing.
Children of different sexes
Sometimes it happens that families with children of different sexes can apply for an improvement in the quality of life and an expansion of real estate. The term “sharing” also works here.
Where to go for help
Let us assume that the person is actually considered to be in need. What should he do? Where to apply for improvement of living conditions?
The issue being studied is dealt with by local governments. To receive subsidies for housing improvement, you must contact the local administration. Also in the regions you can apply for participation in state and municipal programs to provide citizens with real estate. It is proposed to do this at the MFC.
Writing a request
Now it’s clear where to apply to improve your living conditions. How to draw up the corresponding document? And how can you submit it for consideration?
Writing a request does not require any special knowledge. Typically, in the text, applicants must describe the situation, ask for a subsidy or other assistance in improving their home, and attach documents proving the words written.
The text should be:
- coherent;
- literate;
- short;
- without unnecessary facts;
- truthful.
It looks like this:
- "a cap";
- Title of the document;
- main part (story);
- conclusion (requests for help);
- list of attached documents;
- date and signature.
Nothing difficult, unclear or special. Even a citizen who is poorly versed in paperwork can cope with this undertaking.
Procedure
Step-by-step instructions for submitting a study application are as follows:
- Collect evidence that can confirm the family's need. For example, recognizing the housing as unsafe or obtaining certificates from a doctor indicating the impossibility of living with a particular person in the same apartment.
- Form and write an application.
- Prepare the documents necessary to make the appropriate decision.
- Submit an application for consideration.
- Wait for the decision of local authorities.
- Get housing on a first-come, first-served basis (or a subsidy) and register it as your property (or buy an apartment/house).
It would seem that there is nothing difficult. But in reality this is not the case. Getting an apartment from the state or a subsidy to improve living conditions is not easy. You will have to try hard to prove your real need.
Preparation of documents
What documents will help in achieving the task? It all depends on what the citizen is applying for. Most often, improving living conditions means providing a free apartment or house for a family on a first-come, first-served basis. Therefore, we will consider this particular scenario.
In this case, the applicant will be required to:
- documents on ownership of all housing that a person has;
- identification;
- statements about family composition;
- marriage and birth certificates of children (if available);
- document recognizing a citizen as needy;
- certificates confirming the impossibility of living with a particular tenant under the same roof;
- cadastral passport of the apartment in which the family lives;
- certificates from the place of work and study of all family members;
- sanitary passport of the premises (for dormitories);
- military cards (for those liable for military service);
- pension certificates (if any).
It is advisable to submit all the listed papers immediately along with their copies. Identification cards and birth certificates are required from all family members.
Conclusion
The processing time for the request is about 1 month. But the wait in line to receive housing varies. We can say for sure that this is a long process. Some people wait 10-20 years for help from the state. This is normal.
It is because of this that the population is more interested in participating in government programs to provide families (mostly young ones) with housing. The principle of requests will be similar, but in this case help will be provided faster.
Application for improvement of living conditions. Sample and form 2023
The basis for filing an application for improvement of living conditions is a real and documented need for this improvement.
Files in .DOC: Application form for improvement of living conditionsSample application for improvement of living conditions
In addition, to obtain the status of someone in need of improvement, a citizen must meet a number of criteria established by Art. 51 Housing Code of the Russian Federation.
Grounds for recognition
The Housing Code (Articles 49-51) of the Russian Federation determines a person who has the right to apply for improved housing conditions according to a number of criteria. Thus, the following can obtain the right to state assistance in terms of expanding or improving housing:
- low-income citizens (and members of their families) who do not rent social housing and are not home owners;
- low-income citizens who rent social housing or are homeowners, if their provision of square meters is below residential and sanitary standards for each family member;
- low-income citizens (and members of their families) if they live in a house that is duly recognized as unsafe;
- low-income citizens forced to live together with persons suffering from diseases dangerous from the point of view of sanitary standards.
Low income status
As can be seen from the above, the fundamental criterion for registering a person as in need of improvement is the sign of his belonging to the poor. This means that in addition to proof of need, a citizen will be required to confirm the status of his family as low-income.
You can obtain status by contacting the territorial labor and social protection office with a corresponding application. The application will need to be accompanied by:
- copies of identity cards of each family member:
- TIN;
- certificates of wages or other types of income for the two years preceding the submission of the application;
- marriage or divorce certificates;
- certificates of ownership of housing or a rental agreement for residential premises;
- other documents that social security will require for a comprehensive and objective consideration of the application.
Based on the results of the consideration, the applicant’s family may be recognized as low-income. Only after receiving this status can you start collecting documents for registration to improve your living conditions.
Status in need of improvement
The local government, and specifically a specially created commission, is in charge of registering people in need of improved housing conditions.
Any citizen of the Russian Federation can submit an application provided that:
- he and his family have lived for at least ten years in the area in which the application is being made;
- the deterioration of living conditions did not occur as a result of his conscious actions. Deliberate actions mean transactions that resulted in deterioration, for example, donation of part of the living space to a third party or alienation of a share in housing, registration of additional relatives, fictitious marriage, etc.
The application will need to be accompanied by:
- certificate of low-income family status;
- information about persons living and registered in the residential premises, indicating the degree of relationship;
- address of the living space, its main characteristics - square footage, number of rooms, condition of housing (emergency, dilapidated, etc.);
- social tenancy agreement or certificate of ownership of housing;
- medical certificates, if the improvement in conditions is associated with the presence of a chronically ill person in the family;
- a certificate of the average monthly income of each family member;
- arithmetic calculation of square meters of living space for each family member.
Contents of the statement
Local governments may have a standardized application form for registration. In this case, there is no need to invent anything.
If a unified form is not available, then the application should be drawn up in accordance with the structure below. To make your task easier, you can download a sample application available on the website. It only needs to be individualized by introducing personal real circumstances and information into the standard text.
The application begins with a header in which the name of the addressee - the local government body - is written. Below in the header are the applicant's full name, address and contact information for quick communication if necessary.
Under the header is the name of the application and below begins the text describing the reasons why the applicant is asking to improve his living conditions.
The description should indicate;
- the applicant's place of residence;
- information about whether the applicant’s family has low-income status;
- characteristics of the living space;
- names, surnames, dates of birth of all members of the applicant’s family;
- the reasons why the applicant considers himself in need of improvement - the presence of a chronically ill person in the family, small square footage, poor sanitary conditions of housing, dilapidated or unsafe housing, etc.;
- period of residence in the area covered by the jurisdiction of the local executive authority.
The text ends with a request to register the applicant and his family as needing improved conditions. Below the text, in a column, is a list of documents attached to the application.
The application ends with the date of submission of the application and the signature of the applicant.
It is advisable to complete the application in two copies. One should be given to the secretary of the housing commission and asked to sign for receipt on the second copy.
We are waiting for the results
The local executive authority is given a thirty-day period by law to consider citizens’ applications. At the end of this period, the housing commission must decide whether to register the applicant or to refuse the application.
In case of refusal, the commission is obliged to make a reasoned decision indicating the reasons why it considered the application unfounded. The commission's decision can be appealed to a court or to a higher authority.
Privileges
The following may apply for improved housing conditions on a preferential basis:
- large families;
- disabled people;
- orphans – graduates of orphanages;
- persons who lost their only home as a result of natural disasters;
- persons living in houses recognized in accordance with the established procedure as unsafe.
To register in the preferential queue, applicants must provide documents indicating that they belong to the preferential categories of those in need of improved housing conditions.
Large families must obtain the appropriate certificate from the territorial department of labor and social protection. You can familiarize yourself with the rules for obtaining the status of a large family on our website.
Other categories of beneficiaries will need to attach:
- disability certificates of the established form;
- a certificate from a graduate of the orphanage, and, if available, a petition from the administration of the orphanage to allocate housing to the orphan;
- a certificate confirming that the house is included in the emergency fund;
- certificate of house destruction as a result of a natural disaster.
In any case, the list of documents to be attached to the application should be clarified with the housing commission of the local government. This is all the more important due to the fact that an incomplete package of documents may serve as grounds for refusal to satisfy the application.

Improving living conditions for disabled people: conditions, documents, application
Disabled people are one of the most vulnerable segments of the population.
But the government is trying to improve the situation. If they do not have their own living space, they can get it completely free of charge. We will discuss the basic conditions and rules for obtaining free housing for people with disabilities below.
General provisions
The state provides the following benefits to people with disabilities:
- medicines and special equipment (hearing aids, wheelchairs, etc.);
- discounts on housing and communal services.
The general procedure for improving the living conditions of disabled people is described in the Housing Code of the Russian Federation and the Federal Law of the Russian Federation “On the social protection of disabled people in the Russian Federation.”
Citizens with 1st, 2nd and 3rd disability groups can use the service of obtaining new housing. To apply for benefits, they need to register with the relevant authorities (Article 51 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation).
Disabled people of any group can receive free housing.
Requirements for registration
You can register if one of the following conditions is met:
- your family lives in premises that do not comply with sanitary, hygienic or other legal standards and requirements;
- two or more families that are strangers to each other are registered in the living space;
- several families live in the apartment, one of which has a seriously ill person with a contagious disease or mental disorder;
- You have been living in a municipal building on social rent for a long time.
The listed requirements apply to disabled people with group 1 or 2.
For disabled people with group 3, the requirements are different and much smaller:
- your living space does not fully or partially meet sanitary and technical requirements;
- you live with other family members, and you do not have enough living space standards established by law (18 sq.m.);
- you live in a communal apartment, dormitory, etc.
The date you registered is important. The legislator established two periods - before January 1, 2005 and after this period:
- For disabled people who were on the waiting list for improved housing conditions before January 1, 2005, the procedure for providing housing is regulated by the norms of Art. 28.2 of Federal Law No. 199-FZ;
- disabled people registered after 01/01/2005 are provided with an apartment or other living space in accordance with the provisions of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation.
The procedure for providing living space differs depending on the date of registration.
Improving living conditions for a disabled child
Families raising disabled children and in need of a new home are provided with housing and registered in a similar manner. There is also a rule regarding time frames.
If a disabled child lives in a social service institution, is an orphan or is left without parental care, then after reaching the age of 18 he has the right to receive free housing out of turn.
Let us note one nuance. A person must be able to take care of himself and lead an independent lifestyle.
If a disabled child does not have parents, he will receive housing out of turn.
How to write an application for improvement of living conditions?
There is no standard application form, so you need to adhere to the general rules for drawing up such documents.
In your application, be sure to indicate:
- name of the government agency to which the appeal is submitted;
- your personal data (full name, registration address, contact phone number);
- personal data of family members with whom you live;
- circumstances in connection with which you need to improve your living conditions;
- links to relevant legislation;

Where to go and what documents are needed?
To get on the waiting list for improved housing conditions, you need to submit an application to the relevant local government body. As a rule, this is a department of social protection of the population.
Before submitting your application, prepare a package of documents:
- an extract from the house register about persons registered in the apartment;
- medical certificate confirming disability;
- individual rehabilitation program.
This is the main list of required papers. Depending on the circumstances of improving living conditions and the region of residence, additional documents may be needed - an inspection report of housing conditions, certificates from the Criminal Code, etc.
However, please note that the new living space will not be transferred to you on the right of ownership, but only under a social lease agreement. In other words, the municipality will remain its owner.

To do this, when submitting documents for consideration by the commission, you must present a certificate of a large family.
At the same time, the application must indicate that obtaining an apartment is really necessary, since the family is large.
Here is a sample application for registration to improve the living conditions of a large family.
Disabled person
Benefits are also provided for people with disabilities. To do this, they need to present medical documents confirming their right to a preferential queue.
The application must indicate that, due to the assignment of a degree of disability, the citizen has lost his ability to work and cannot independently purchase space for living.
