New, sustainable and affordable housing in Kirchberg!

F.A.Q

• Is it necessary for all applicants to satisfy the residence conditions for retired people or the work conditions for non-retired people? (e.g., if there are two non-retired applicants, do both of them have to work in Luxembourg?)

  NO, this condition only needs to be fulfilled by 1 of the 2 applicants. 

• What does this section of the application form mean? “If married, does the matrimonial regime (marriage contract) include pooling my assets with those of my spouse?”

  For example, under Luxembourg law, when people are married with "joint ownership of property", when one of the spouses purchases a home with a mortgage loan, even if they do so alone, the other spouse becomes a buyer by law as well. In this case, the said spouse must also comply with the conditions. The same applies in comparable situations, in particular under other national laws.

• Can a dependent person who is not my child and whose care has not been entrusted to me by court order or through a special measure be counted? (e.g., a friend whom I house and feed free of charge)

  NO

• Should the attachments be copies or originals?

  Copies are accepted

• Are copies of documents with electronic signatures accepted?

  YES

• How old should the documents be?

  Less than 3 months old as of the day the form is sent, except for the ownership certificate, which is issued on 01/01/2024.

• Do all applicants have to provide the extended residence certificate?

  YES – Except if your country of residence does not provide this sort of certificate (e.g., France). If that is the case, you must provide a sworn statement proving the composition of the household living under the same roof, accompanied by an energy bill.

• What does the concept of a “dependent child” mean?

  The concept of a “dependent child” is understood primarily in terms of their presence on the household composition form or the extended certificate of residence. However, "unborn" children are also taken into account if a pregnancy has been confirmed (medical attestation required). However, your tax records may also be taken into account. The Fund’s assessment of this situation is strictly decisive.

• I have sold my property since 1 January 2024, how do I prove that I no longer own the property?

  By providing a letter from the notary attesting to the sale of the property and stating the date of sale. 

• Do all the applicants have to sign?

  YES

• What are the conditions for qualifying for internal mobility?

  A long-term change in my household or circumstances after the purchase of my first affordable home which makes it unsuitable or at least less suitable. The Fund’s assessment of the change and whether it is a long-term change is decisive. 

   For example, if a childless couple had bought a home with two bedrooms and then had twins, the two-bedroom home has become unsuitable for that family.

   Exceptions to this rule may be granted in very exceptional cases.

• If I am applying for “internal mobility”, are there specific rules I need to follow?

  YES:

  a/ Fill in item 3.3 of the form

  b/ Provide evidence of the lasting change in my household after the purchase of my first affordable home, which justifies applying for "Internal Mobility".

• When should the construction be completed?

  Thirty-six (36) months after construction work begins. Currently, completion is expected to be in 2028. 

• What percentage of the deposit will I have to pay to guarantee the purchase?

  2% of the sale price incl. taxes (17%).
