The countdown has started for the 915.600 families - equal to over 2,3 million people - who receive the basic income. If the beneficiaries do not present the new ISEE by Friday 31 January, they will lose the right to the subsidy.
CITIZENSHIP INCOME: HOW TO REQUEST THE ISEE
ISEE is closely linked to the Single Substitute Declaration (DSU), a document that contains the personal data, income and assets of the households which represents the basis on which the calculation is then made in order to issue the ISEE certificate.
Citizens' income recipients therefore have four days to deliver the DSU and comply with the obligations that allow them to receive social benefits. So the rule also applies to citizenship pension, baby bonus, nursery bonus and so on.
The new declaration can be presented by the end of the month to the institution that provides the subsidized social benefit, to the Municipality, to the Caf, or online on the INPS website and will be valid throughout 2020.
But be careful: because starting this year, in addition to the usual Dsu, those who receive social benefits, and therefore also the citizen's income, will also have access to the pre-compiled Dsu. To get it, you need to log in INPS website using the Pin at your disposal. Once done, users will have to confirm the data entered in the declaration or request a change within three months of receipt.
We remember that "the Dsu and the Isee are used by users who apply for subsidized social services, i.e. all benefits or social or welfare services whose provision depends on the economic situation of the applicant's family nucleus, ie based on the so-called means test.”, explains the National Institute of Social Security.
