As a resident of a building with a shared connection, it's essential to know whether your property manager has applied for the Temporary Block Connection Compensation (TTB) and how it will be calculated. The TTB is a subsidy intended to compensate residents of buildings with a shared heating or electricity connection for the high energy costs in 2023.
Responsibilities of the Home Manager
The home manager, as the contract holder for the energy connection, is responsible for applying for the TTB (Tension Tax Allowance) and distributing the received subsidy among the residents. According to the regulations, the manager must inform the affected households within 14 days of receiving the subsidy about the receipt and the settlement method.
Your rights as a resident
You have the right to be informed about the status of your TTB application and the allocation of the subsidy. Transparency is crucial to ensure you receive the compensation you are entitled to. If the property manager does not provide this information, you can request an explanation at the General Members' Meeting or contact a legal advisor for assistance.
Actions you can take
-
Check the application status : An online register is available to check whether the TTB subsidy has been applied for at your address.
-
Seek legal advice : If you do not receive adequate information, consider seeking legal advice to protect your rights.
Conclusion
It is crucial that your property manager is transparent about the TTB subsidy application and its distribution. If you do not receive any information, take the steps mentioned above to ensure your right to compensation.
