Regarding the "housing security benefit" that supports people who have lost their jobs, the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare said that those who have finished paying due to reemployment, etc. may be in need of life due to a state of emergency. I decided to be able to receive the payment.
The national "Housing Security Benefit" is a system in which the local government pays the rent up to a certain amount to those who cannot pay the rent due to loss of work, etc. The payment period is 3 months in principle, and the maximum is 12 It is the month.
If you get a new job, the payment will end, but the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare says that there is a risk that more people will have difficulty paying rent due to a decrease in income due to a state of emergency.
For this reason, we have decided to allow people who have finished their payments to receive benefits again for three months if they are in need of living.
Re-applications are scheduled to be accepted by local governments and the Council of Social Welfare from early February, and will be accepted by the end of March.
