The Cabinet of Ministers reported that assistance will be provided in several cases, including:

• IDPs who have moved to regions controlled by Ukraine and do not own housing exceeding 13.65 m² per family member;
• Families whose housing has been destroyed or damaged and become uninhabitable;
• Those who spend more than 20% of their income on rent;
• IDPs who do not receive living assistance;
• Individuals not participating in the "Shelter" program;
• Families with an income less than 2 minimum living wages (up to 5840 UAH per person) will be eligible for a larger subsidy amount.

The subsidy will be calculated individually, valid for six months with the possibility of extension. A rental agreement will be required to apply.
