  • You occupy 2 dwellings over the same period and you have a double rent charge (you have signed 2 leases).

Mobili-Jeune Help Request

You must attach (scan) to your request a rent receipt or proof of payment of rent and your pay slips for the months concerned.

Warning  

Mobili-Jeune aid is granted within the maximum amount of the budget allocated to Action logement. Once this envelope is exceeded, the aid is no longer available.

The amount of aid varies from €10 minimum per month to €100 maximum per month.

The amount of aid shall be limited to €1,100 by year of training out of 11 monthly payments.

The calculation is made on the rent after deduction from personalized housing assistance (APL) if you get this help.

Example :

For a rent of €350 (including charges), if you touch €220 from APL, the aid paid will be €100.

For a rent of €350 (including charges), if you touch €280 from APL, the aid paid will be €70.

For a rent of €250 (including charges), if you touch €245 of APL, you will not be able to benefit from the aid because your remaining expenses are less than €10.

The aid may be applied for over a maximum of 2 years of training, consecutive or not, i.e. 2 times 11 months.

Reminder

The amount of aid shall be limited to €1,100 by year of training out of 11 monthly payments.

The payment of the aid is made by Action logement by bank transfer directly to the account indicated by your bank identity statement (Rib), even if you are a minor.

The transfer cannot be made to a third party (for example, your parents).

Any changes in your situation must be reported to Action logement from your personal account. Moreover, any change in situation must comply with the eligibility criteria (income, housing situation, etc.).

FYI  

If your employer moves and you need to find housing to continue your training, without receiving Mobili-Jeune assistance, you can apply for this assistance within 3 months of the date of your employer's move.
