To get subsides for energy, a family needs to register electronically on compensatii.gov.md or to be helped to register by the librarian or local social assistant. The persons who do not need subsidies should indicate this in the application. If the persons do not submit the completed form they will be classified into the moderate energy vulnerability category, IPN reports.
To be able to register, the applicant needs to have nearby all the IDs of the members of the household for which a subsidy is requested and also heat, gas and electricity bills. If the person took out and pays a home loan, the cadastral number is also needed.
After the person logs in with a digit code sent to the mobile phone, this fills in personal data, such as the name, surname and identification number (IDNP). Only the persons who live in the dwelling, including rented accommodations, for which subsidies are requested can apply for subsidies. A person can be indicated only in one application.
The introduced data are automatically verified through the State Population Register. If a mistake is made when filling in the application form, the applicant is warned about it. If the person does not have an IDNP, the number and series of another ID and the birthdate need to be entered. Ukrainian refugees can apply for subsidies by the same method.
The applicant then enters such data as the telephone number and email address through which information will be sent about the receipt of the application and the energy vulnerability category, the average monthly income for the last six months, including pensions, salaries, social benefits, dividends, transfers from abroad and other sources of income, except for the one-off childbirth allowance and care, supervision and other types of allowances, data about the dwelling, the used heating system, the gas and electric power suppliers.
The person will be informed when the application is processed and accepted.
The Government in November 2022- March 2023 will partially subsidize the rise in the prices of energy resources through the Meter Assistance Program.
