Applying for a subsidy in Geneva means choosing the right form (there are several depending on your situation), gathering the right documents and meeting the deadlines. One mistake or omission, and the subsidy you are entitled to is not paid. Our role: make this process simple and reliable, at no cost to you.

Why get support?

The right form: young adult, B/L/N/F permit, newcomer, taxed at source, change in circumstances… each case has its own procedure.
The RDU: understanding what counts as income and checking your group so you don’t underestimate your entitlement.
Deadlines: an application filed too late costs you months of subsidy.
Follow-up: if the SAM has a question or asks for more, we handle it for you.
