Housing for Veterans – How to Act in Case of Refusal for Apartment Registration
Veterans who have been denied apartment registration have the right to demand an official written decision and appeal it in case of violation of the law. This was reported by the Zhytomyr Regional Military Commissariat and Social Protection Center.
It is important that refusal to register for an apartment cannot be given orally. Such a decision must be documented in writing with specific reasons for the refusal.
In addition, the application review period cannot exceed 30 calendar days.
If the decision is made without explanation of reasons, with violation of established deadlines, or without proper legal grounds, the veteran has the right to appeal it. For this, one can submit a repeated application or go to court.
Combatants, persons with disabilities due to the war, and family members of fallen Defenders of Ukraine are exempt from paying court fees in cases related to social protection and benefits.
It is also reminded that combatants, persons with disabilities due to the war, and families of fallen servicemen have the right to register for an apartment to receive housing or housing benefits.
Apartment registration is handled by executive bodies of local councils, administrative service centers, district administrations in cities, as well as village and settlement councils depending on the applicant's place of residence.
Registration can be done either at the place of residence or at the place of work if the enterprise has its own housing stock.
