According to the website varmecheck.dk It has become possible to apply for heating assistance, a tax-free lump sum of 6,000 kronor.
The application process opened on Tuesday morning, while the payment was automatically made (without opening the application process) during the month of August to more than 411,000 families. It was later proven that about 10,600 families had received heating assistance in error, according to a study conducted by the Danish Energy Agency. The agency estimated that between 1.6 and 2.61 TP3T of beneficiaries had received the payment even though they were not entitled to it because they were not among the categories specified by the government, which caused harsh criticism of the previous government.
Application requirements:
The current conditions for applying for winter assistance are that you have not received the same assistance the first time.
