The PFC explained for what period the pension will be taken into account in household income if the subsidy is assigned from the beginning of the unheated season.

In the case of a housing subsidy from the beginning of the unheated season (from May to September), the total income is taken into account for the III-IV quarter of the previous calendar year. At the same time, pension income is taken into account for March of the current year..

That is, when calculating the subsidy for the summer (unheated) period, the March pension payment will be taken into account. (Regulations on the procedure for assigning housing subsidies, approved by the Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine dated 21. 10. 1995 No. 848 “On simplification of the procedure for granting subsidies to the population for reimbursement of expenses for payment of housing and communal services, purchase of liquefied gas, solid and liquid household stove fuel”).

The housing subsidy is an irrevocable targeted state social assistance to consumers. The legislation provides for only two cases when he will be forced to return to the state.
