here’s who has to reapply – Corriere.it

Single and universal check at risk with the farewell to the Citizenship Income. The INPS has detailed the transitional regulations for the use of the Citizenship Income, in force until 31 December 2023, and which from 1 January 2024 will be replaced by the Inclusion Allowance (Adi) and by the Support for training and work (Sfl ). Some families will therefore have to re-apply for the contribution for their children to ensure continuity in the provision.

The transitional period

The result of this change is that the Single and Universal Allowance (Auu) will no longer be disbursed automatically, as has happened up to now, together with the Citizenship Income. In short, the two sizes will no longer travel in pairs. INPS explains: Families who are entitled to the provision of a single and universal allowance even after the expiry of the seven months of the Citizenship Income must submit an application for recognition of the allowance by the last day of the month in which the Basic income. Even households to which the limit of use of the Citizenship Income for the seven months does not apply, will have to submit an application for recognition of the Auu if they receive the supplementary share in the amount of the Citizenship Income, by the last day of the month of competence of the Rdc. All to receive the Auu continuously, thus not losing support, starting from the month following the cessation of payments of the old Rdc.

The families concerned and the demand for Auu

According to data from the Inps Observatory as of June 1st, this step potentially affects about 366 thousand families who will have to redo the single allowance before the RDC expires. These are families that have an average integration of 166 euros. As explained by the INPS, the Auu application must also be presented in the hypothesis of suspension of the Citizenship Income. Following the submission of the application, the single and universal check will be paid for the entire amount due and no longer as a supplement. The Auu is therefore not removed but simply needs to be updated.

The two measures

We would like to remind you that the single universal check provides economic support to families awarded for each dependent child up to the age of 21 and with no age limit for disabled children. The amount due varies according to the economic condition of the family nucleus on the basis of an ISEE valid at the time of the application, taking into account the age and number of children as well as any situations of disability. On the other hand, the Inclusion Allowance is recognised, at the request of one of the members of the family nucleus, as a guarantee of the need for inclusion of members of families with disabilities, minors or those who are at least sixty years of age.
