Rent allowance

Rent composition

You can apply for rent allowance from the tax authorities. The tax authorities determine whether you are entitled to housing benefit or not. DUWO is separate from this.

You can also make a test calculation on their website. This test calculation gives an indication of the amount of the surcharge, but you cannot derive any rights from it.

Housing allowance is calculated by the Tax Administration based on the basic rent, as stated in the rental agreement.
