Youme Law Firm LLC replied: Decree No. 100/2024 dated July 26, 2024 of the Government detailing a number of articles of the Housing Law on the development and management of social housing (effective from August 1, 2024) stipulates the income conditions for groups of beneficiaries of social housing policies as follows:
For subjects who are low-income people in urban areas; workers and laborers working at enterprises, cooperatives, and cooperative unions inside and outside industrial parks; cadres, civil servants, and public employees according to the provisions of the law on cadres, civil servants, and public employees, the income conditions shall apply as prescribed in Clause 1, Article 30.
In case the petitioner is a single person, the actual monthly income must not exceed 15 million VND calculated according to the salary table confirmed by the agency, unit, or enterprise where the subject works.
In case the plaintiff is married according to the provisions of law, the plaintiff and his/her husband (husband) with a total monthly income shall receive no more than 30 million VND calculated according to the salary table, salary confirmed by the agency, unit, or enterprise where the subject works.
For officers, professional soldiers, non-commissioned officers of the People's Armed Forces, police workers, civil servants, workers and national defense officials currently serving in the army; people working in cryptography, people working in other cryptographic organizations receiving salaries from the State budget currently working - apply the income conditions according to the provisions of Article 67 of Decree No. 100/2024 (income conditions for buying and renting houses for the People's Armed Forces).
In case the plaintiff is a single person, the actual monthly income received must not exceed the total income of an officer with the rank of colonel (including basic salary and allowances according to regulations) confirmed by the agency or unit where he/she works or manages.
In case the plaintiff is married according to the provisions of law:
The plaintiff and his/her husband (husband) are both subjects specified in Clause 7, Article 76 of the 2023 Housing Law and have a total actual monthly income not exceeding 2.0 times the total income of an officer with the rank of colonel (including basic salary and allowances according to regulations) confirmed by the agency or unit where they work or manage;
The wife (husband) of a plaintiff who is not a subject specified in Clause 7, Article 76 of the 2023 Housing Law shall have a total actual monthly income not exceeding 1.5 times the total income of an officer with the rank of colonel (including basic salary and allowances according to regulations) confirmed by the agency, unit or enterprise where the subject works.
In case the petitioner's wife (husband) does not have a labor contract, the People's Committee at the commune level will confirm the income conditions.
Thus, for employees receiving salaries from the State budget and workers, the income condition for enjoying the policy of buying and renting social housing is the income level calculated according to wages and salaries confirmed by the agency, unit, or enterprise where the subject works, not dependent on the adjustment of the basic salary.
