APL or Personalized Housing Assistance is financial assistance available to people with low incomes. The good news is that everyone can benefit, even foreign students!
The amount of aid depends on several criteria ✅:
you are a tenant (or sub-tenant if you are under 30)
the rented accommodation is decent
the rented accommodation is under agreement
the rented accommodation is a furnished apartment, a hostel, a hotel room or a university residence
your resources and those of people living under the same roof as you (for shared accommodation) respect the ceilings set by the CAF
the lessor is not a member of your family or your spouse or partner
the rented accommodation is your main residence and is occupied at least 8 months per year
👉 How do you know if you can benefit from it? The best way is to do a simulation on the CAF website.
