Rent Allowance Waiver in Zoetermeer: When Possible?

In Zoetermeer, you can apply for waiver of rent allowance debts in cases of serious financial problems, especially if your income is below the social assistance level and your assets are lower than the exemption threshold (€7,575 for single persons in 2024). Start by completing the 'Request for Waiver of Tax Credit Debt' form on toeslagen.nl and attach supporting documents for income, expenses, and assets. The Tax Authorities assess whether the debt is 'excusable': no fraud or intent involved, and you can never repay the debt. Upon approval, the debt is waived in full or in part. Received a refusal? File an objection with the Tax Authorities within six weeks. In Zoetermeer, success is seen with chronically ill individuals with high medical costs or those on minimum income in neighborhoods like Palenstein and Seghwaert, where rent prices are burdensome. The Municipality of Zoetermeer offers additional extraordinary assistance for tenants in need – contact the Wmo counter or the social services department in the City Hall at Stationsplein. Exclusion applies in cases of gross negligence. Combine this with local debt counselling via SchuldHulpMaatschappij Zoetermeer for a fresh start without unaffordable burdens.
