About housing security benefits

Updated: April 1, 2023

Housing Security Benefit

The housing security benefit is intended for those who have lost or are likely to lose their home due to financial difficulties due to job separation, self-employment closure, or unavoidable business suspension. This is a system in which the city pays the landlord an amount equivalent to the rent (with an upper limit) for a period of three months in principle (with an extension system).

If you meet the following main requirements, there is a high possibility that you will meet the eligibility requirements, so please consult with the "Welfare and Living Consultation Desk".
Please contact us by phone before visiting our office.

  • Opportunities to earn income have decreased within 2 years after leaving or closing the business, or due to unavoidable reasons
  • Household income in the application month is less than a certain amount (Upper limit example) 1 person household 137,700 yen, 2 person household 194,000 yen
