Amr Khattab, the official spokesperson for the Ministry of Housing, confirmed that applications to obtain alternative housing units for tenants under the Old Rent Law are subject to a set of strict criteria, most notably the submission of official documents that clarify the family’s income and social status. He noted that any missing or incorrect documentation could result in the application being rejected.
Khattab explained that government and public sector employees are required to provide certified income statements from their employers, while pensioners and divorced women must submit documents proving the value of their pension or alimony. He emphasized that these measures aim to ensure fairness and guarantee that support reaches those who truly deserve it.

He revealed that the Cabinet has decided to open the door for appeals for one month after the results of the review are announced, giving citizens the opportunity to correct mistakes and complete the required documents. He added that the Ministry has allocated technical support offices to provide assistance, particularly for the elderly and people with special needs, to ensure applications are submitted electronically with ease and efficiency.
