The deadline for submitting applications will open on 15 November and end on 15 December.
The Govern de les Illes Balears published this Saturday the regulatory bases and the call for rental subsidies for 2024 in the Official Gazette of the Balearic Islands, which initially has a budget of 9.2 million euros. The deadline for submitting applications will open on 15 November and end on 15 December, as was the case with last year’s call for applications.
The budget for the 2024 call is 9.2 million euros, which represents an increase of almost 491,000 euros compared to last year. Of the total allocation for 2024, 7 million comes from state funds through the State Housing Plan and 2.2 million from the Autonomous Community’s funds.

The government publishes the call for applications for rental subsidies for 2024, with a budget of 9.2 million euros
By the conditions established by the Ministry of Housing and the Urban Agenda, this aid covers a maximum of 50% of the monthly rent of up to 900 euros, with an aid limit per dwelling of 3,000 euros per year.
The income limits established for eligibility are also maintained. As a general rule, the income of the cohabitation unit cannot exceed 25,200 euros per year, three times the public income indicator for multiple effects (IPREM).
This limit is increased in certain cases: up to 33,600 euros (four times the IPREM) in the case of large families in the general category, people with disabilities or victims of terrorism; and up to 42,000 euros (five times the IPREM) in the case of large families in the special category or people with disabilities with a recognised degree of disability equal to or greater than 33%.
The new call for applications for the 2024 grants will be available from Monday 14 October on the website ajudeslloguer.caib.es, where interested parties can consult the information on the grants and, once the deadline opens, they will also be able to submit their applications online. In addition, it will be possible to make an appointment in person for all those who require support in the processing of applications.
The requirements to be eligible for aid are, among others: to be the holder of a rental contract for a dwelling; for the rented dwelling to be the habitual and permanent residence of the applicant; for the holders of the contract to be Spanish nationals or legally resident; to meet the maximum income requirements established, the maximum rent to be equal to or less than 900 euros per month and to be up to date with the payment of the rent at the time of the application.
Likewise, the beneficiary must obligatorily use this aid to pay the rent. This aid is not compatible with any other aid for the payment of rent under the State Plan for Access to Housing 2022-2025, nor with any other aid which, for the same purpose, may be granted by the Autonomous Community of the Balearic Islands, local authorities or any other public administration or entity.
Exceptional cases of aid for victims of gender-based violence, victims of trafficking for the purpose of sexual exploitation, victims of sexual violence, people who have been evicted from their habitual residence, homeless people and other particularly vulnerable people, as well as people receiving non-contributory social security benefits and beneficiaries of the minimum living income are not considered to be affected by this incompatibility.
