Military personnel make up a significant part of Russian society. The conditions of their service are often very far from ideal: participation in hot spots, constant travel, lack of comfort. Spouses and children most often share the employee's share. The constant change of kindergartens, schools and the lack of work of the spouse accompany all the time of moving. That is why this category of the population needs protection from legislation.
The government actively supports military personnel. A large amount of legislative documentation is being published. How to figure out who is entitled to what? How can I get on the waiting list for an apartment? What does a unified register of military personnel in need of housing mean?
How to become one of those on the waiting list? It is necessary to go through the approval procedure to show the situation of real need. In order for you to be recognized as needing housing, the law establishes the following rules:
This law applies not only to the military, but also to other citizens. Russian Federation. If you relate to the above points, then you have the right to receive an apartment. Study the legislation relevant to your case. If you meet the above requirements, you can get on the waiting list for an apartment.
To be included in the Register of military personnel in need of improved housing conditions, you must provide information to the Housing Department of the Ministry of Defense. The following documents should be attached:
The date when the entire package of required documents is submitted will be the date when they will be registered. If something cannot be provided in connection with the service, then it is registered at the moment when the right to place it appears.
The information received is checked within 30 working days, and based on the results of the review, it is decided to register or refuse. If there is a shortage of documents, a notification is sent and served within three working days. If an employee is on duty and it is impossible to deliver documents, the commander is obliged to inform the authorized body about this. If the required documents are not brought within 30 days, the application will be rejected.
If corrections are necessary in the submitted information, it is necessary to notify the authorized bodies within 30 days. If changes occur in the place of residence, an application is submitted to the new address. In this case, the registration date does not change (it remains the one when the documents were originally submitted).
If a service member has deliberately worsened his situation, he will not be considered for the next five years. The following cases are not recognized as special deterioration of life:
What reasons may affect deregistration:
If the above situations arise, the person on the waiting list is excluded from the queue for up to 30 days. Documents informing about this are sent within 3 days.
Appeared in 2010. Since then, legislation has addressed it more than once. In 2014, information about the Register appeared on the website of the Ministry of Defense, which had previously been extremely problematic to obtain. On the website today, those in need of improved housing conditions can get a huge amount of information:
The first five items are publicly viewable. To study further information, you need to have a personal key for authorization. It is issued upon registration. If it is not provided, you must contact the authorized authorities. Personal information contains:
Maximum information is currently open for transparency and clarity of the process of progression in the queue. At the same time, data constituting a personal secret is closed. Each person on the Register can track their location in the queue, view data, and find out the preliminary location of housing.
If errors are detected in the data, you must contact the authorized authorities to correct them. They plan to launch this opportunity online through the website in the near future. If you submitted documents, but did not find any information about yourself, perhaps they simply did not have time to add you to the lists. A large number of documents requires a scrupulous verification of the information provided.
The rules for recognizing military personnel as needing housing do not differ from recognizing everyone else as needing. The recognition of a serviceman as needing permanent housing is carried out by an authorized body on the basis of the laws and regulations of the Russian Federation. Which military personnel can apply for inclusion in the Register:
The following are entitled to priority housing:
After construction, pre-allocated housing is reviewed and re-allocated according to the Register. All necessary formalities are being completed to put the housing into operation. Then the data about the new building is sent to the authorized body, which sends a receipt to those in need within ten days. When there are official events that impede the execution of documents, the authorized body is notified about this within three days. In this case, the apartment is temporarily reserved for the military personnel if the events last less than 90 days. If more, housing is given in order of priority.
The potential owner inspects the property and prepares for registration. If you are not satisfied with certain points, a refusal is prepared in the required form. It is drawn up, signed and submitted within up to 5 days.
Apartments are distributed taking into account the required square footage. Possible additional residential meters that should be provided are also taken into account:
Additional meters are allocated within the framework of 15 to 25 squares. If you agree to the premises provided, you must notify the authorized body within 5 days. If consent/disagreement is not received, the apartment is transferred in order of priority.
Electronic provision of information made it possible to more clearly obtain information about the need for construction in specific regions. The following points are taken into account:
When settling in existing areas, in order to provide citizens with everything they need after settlement, data on the availability of medical care is carefully studied: this is not only hospitals, but also the availability of pharmacies. For some categories of employees, admission without a queue is provided, but the influx of people still needs to be uniform and not exceed accepted standards.
It is also important to have jobs for retired former contract workers and their families. There are certain agreements with some enterprises regarding the employment of former contract workers and people who live with them. Often, spouses at the end of their service cannot boast of having any length of service.
Location of kindergartens, schools, higher educational institutions, sports and cultural centers - important factor upon check-in.
The provision of living space occurs throughout the duration of the service for those in need. Apartments owned by the state or municipality are available for rent. They can then be privatized.
Now everything is being done for the purpose of convenience and comfortable military service and accommodation for the families of employees. Due to the lack of certain resources, the situation is not ideal, but, given the desire and actions taken, significant improvements are taking place.
Of course, the appearance of the Register in the public domain did not solve the housing problem: the queue did not become smaller. But the openness and availability of information has made people calmer: they know exactly where they are and can roughly determine when they will become the owners of an apartment.
The Unified Register of Military Personnel who are not provided with permanent housing is an all-Russian information base, which is formed and controlled by the Department of Housing of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation (hereinafter referred to as the Housing Department of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation). Access to the resource is limited, and not everyone who is curious can see how military personnel are given housing today. Only those on the waiting list can find out information about military personnel exercising their rights to receive apartments. Read more about how to get into the electronic queue and how to use it later in the material.
As such, there is no concept of a queue of military personnel for an apartment in Russian legislation. There is a registration procedure and that’s it!
In accordance with Order of the Ministry of Defense No. 1280 of September 30, 2010 (as amended and supplemented), which approved the procedure for obtaining housing for military personnel, the functions of maintaining records of military personnel (AF) in need of housing are assigned to the Department of Defense of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation.
According to Order No. 1280, regional divisions of the JO MO:
The Housing Department considers issues of registering employees of almost all branches of the military.
However, there are military units in which housing commissions still function, and it is they who resolve all issues related to housing guarantees. This applies primarily to the FSB, the Ministry of Emergency Situations and the internal troops.
All applications for improvement of living conditions are considered and satisfied in order of priority. Since there are far fewer residential meters than there are applicants for them, it turns out that you have to wait for an apartment for years, and a queue automatically forms, which moves forward as new residential buildings are built.
Important! Today, in the legislation of the Russian Federation there is no rule by which the period for providing permanent housing to the armed forces is established (although previously this period was 3 months from the date of registration). Now the Supreme Court is deprived of the opportunity to demand through the court the exercise of its right to free permanent housing on the grounds that the JO MO is violating the deadlines.
The electronic register of housing for military personnel is an official compilation of information on the procedure for exercising the military’s personal right to permanent housing. The database is attached to the website of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, and it publishes current information on housing support.
If an employee has documentary evidence according to which he is registered in the housing register, but the register provides completely different information, then the information supported by documents is considered priority.
If such a situation occurs, then you need to conduct a reconciliation with the JO MO.
Extracts, printouts and other information from the register are not official and must be supported by documents issued by the competent authorities.
In fact, the register is needed so that the employee can at any time become familiar with the current status of the consideration and satisfaction of his application.
A few highlights of being in line:
On the website of the Ministry of Defense, the Department of Housing assures that the queue moves very quickly, and each person on the waiting list can receive their square meters within 3 years.
Registration of employees in need of improved housing conditions is actually the most crucial moment in the entire procedure for obtaining living space. If you are registered, your inclusion in the register occurs automatically; no additional applications need to be submitted.
The following have the right to receive permanent housing free of charge:
A mandatory condition for providing living space is that the aircraft does not have its own housing, that is, during the entire 20 years of service, the aircraft must live in office premises or equivalent ones.
After the circumstances with which the law connects the emergence of the right to free square meters have arisen, the Supreme Court must contact the regional office of the Housing and Social Institution of the Moscow Region with an application for free housing.
There is no automatic inclusion in the queue. This right is granted only if there is a written request from the employee, confirmed by the necessary documents.
Documentation must be submitted until the aircraft is on the lists of the military unit.
In the Russian Federation there are 4 regional departments of the JO MO in each military district. The application and documents must be submitted to the JO MO at the place of duty. The period for consideration of the application is 30 calendar days, during which the commission makes a decision on registration.
Notice of inclusion or refusal must be served on the Supreme Court no later than 30 days after the decision is made: either delivered in person or sent by mail.
The most common reason for refusal to register is the intentional deterioration of the employee's living conditions. Simply put, if the commission establishes that the armed forces had the opportunity to improve their living conditions, but he deliberately did not take advantage of it, expecting a free apartment from the state, then the application will be denied.
Access to the register can only be obtained using the personal number of a serviceman who is already registered in it. The only official electronic register operates on the website of the Ministry of Defense.
From this information base you can find out:
If during the time you are registered, your life circumstances that affect your right to free housing change, you must notify the Department of Internal Affairs and take measures to update the data contained in the register.
Providing military housing is a complex topic, with many controversial issues and bureaucratic troubles. If you managed to get an apartment or, conversely, there are obstacles in realizing your right, tell your story here. Your experience will be useful to your colleagues.
State guarantees to citizens are associated with the benefits that the latter bring to society. This principle, in particular, was applied in the drafting of legislation regulating the provision of housing to military personnel in need. Officers and soldiers have the right to free square meters at the expense of the treasury. In order to equitably distribute space, the Russian Ministry of Defense created a database - a unified register of military personnel in need of housing (URV).
Download for viewing and printing:
The need to create a unified database of waiting lists is caused by several circumstances. We list them in order of importance:
Attention: ERV allows you to create a mechanism for distributing subsidized housing:
This database is a convenient tool for the department responsible for the distribution of apartments. The resource is also useful for users waiting for the desired housing. In addition, it guarantees fairness in allocating apartments to those on the waiting list. Anyone can find out information of interest at any time, familiarize themselves with regulatory documents and changes in them.
Important: only registered users can receive information from the database. They are assigned a number - a password to enter.
Now those on the waiting list can receive the necessary information without taking into account their place of stay from any geographical location.
EPB became available to users on September 30, 2010. Interested parties can find it. However, only contract officers who have the official status of needing residential premises will be able to obtain information on the resource. This is assigned to the Ministry of Defense through local units.
The methodology for working with military personnel in need of apartments comes down to the following:
Users in 2019 are provided with the following opportunities:
The state program is designed for military personnel, for whom, by law, the state guarantees housing. Therefore, it is necessary to confirm the status. After receiving a letter with a personal number from the personnel department, you need to log into the portal and go through the authorization process.
It must be taken into account that document flow does not occur instantly. MoD employees need time to:
The procedure for providing military apartments was approved along with the State Program. It was compiled taking into account professional characteristics applicants for government assistance and general norms of Russian legislation. This means that certain categories of contract workers have benefits. So, the distribution takes into account the following factors:
The following categories of applicants enjoy priority rights:
An important factor is the place chosen for living. The fact is that the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation is carrying out construction on long-term plan. The latter is compiled taking into account the number of applications. For example, in 2017, those on the waiting list considered the outskirts of St. Petersburg to be the most promising place to live. In this area, construction was actively carried out for military personnel.
The same citizens who chose the southern regions will have to wait for the next tranche to be allocated. The state is not able to build the required number of houses at once. But the problem with the queue is planned to be eliminated in the near future. In addition, in 2019, officers and soldiers were given the right to take advantage of alternative ways getting an apartment. For example, the military mortgage program.
For information: the essence of a military mortgage is that a serviceman takes out a loan from a bank and purchases residential premises in any region of the country. The mortgage will be repaid by the budget through the Russian Ministry of Defense. The register of available funds can be viewed on the official website of the Moscow Region. It is significantly wider than the fund finished houses.

The Ministry of Defense, after several significant steps to modernize the army, came to understand the need. At the same time, there are several programs, during the implementation of which each military personnel, at least after retirement, will be entitled to full-fledged housing. It cannot be said that all these programs work smoothly, since at one stage there may be bureaucratic delays, especially since no one has abolished corruption yet.
In order to ensure the objectivity of the queue for housing, as well as to avoid violations, certain measures are being developed, one of which is a unified register of those in need of housing. Let us immediately note that persons participating in military mortgages are already using the state program, and therefore are not included in the register. It contains information about those who are entitled to receive housing free of charge.
The most pressing issue became the creation of a unified register for military personnel waiting in line for an apartment back in 2010. Since then, some stages of modernization of the portal have taken place and today it is presented as a full-fledged resource where you can not only track the queue, preventing violations of the law, but also find out all the public information provided about the military personnel. As we have already mentioned, this register is relevant only for those who receive housing in in kind, and the mortgage or subsidy is regulated by other programs.
Data such as position, branch of service, rank and length of service are available on the portal. Each user has the opportunity to track the process of housing delivery after construction by region of Russia. Thus, the unified register of military housing is not just an electronic form of recording registered users, but is also a kind of information resource for those who are in line to receive an apartment. In addition, here you can find any legal support on emerging issues regarding the implementation of the program.
At first glance, it may seem that such administration of the portal violates the confidentiality of personal data, but this is not the case. Only solutions to legal issues are publicly available. Personal information is available to the registered user using his personal number. It is a kind of code for entering the unified registry.
The state has a priority task of providing housing for military personnel. IN Lately you can observe the real results of its implementation. If previously citizens knew that they had the right to receive an apartment in theoretical terms, now there have been noticeable changes in resolving this issue. In this mode, each program participant will want to personally control their participation. It is advisable to track the queue for housing for military personnel using a personal number only after inclusion in the register.
No special manipulations are required from the serviceman. There are only two qualifying conditions for program participants:
If a citizen is suitable to participate in the program, then he must write a corresponding application addressed to the unit commander. The formation of the list is entrusted to the competent structures of the Ministry of Defense. They cope with their task quite well. The soldier does not have to worry about possible mistakes. Approximately 95% of all military personnel are included in a single register.
Close interaction with the housing policy department allows you to avoid mistakes. Currently, there is a clear trend towards improving software tools for processing registry data. In the future, it will be possible to make requests to the department directly from the specified portal.
Login Personal Area is carried out using an individual number, which can be obtained after submitting an application to the unit command. Thus, to enter the portal and view your own status in the program, you will need a personal number, an individual number of a program participant, and the very fact of being included in the unified register.
There is no need to talk about the advantages of conducting queries online. You just need to remember that without this service you would have to write a request, wait in a data processing queue, and besides, the request does not always result in a response. Now, around the clock, in a couple of minutes it is possible to study and analyze movement in the program. But at the same time, it is necessary to remember and store personal data that serves as the login and password for entering your personal account.
It must be remembered that the unified registry portal is informational. In reality, the list is compiled in the Department of Housing Affairs under the Ministry of Defense. Therefore, if you cannot enter your personal account, this does not mean that you have been expelled from the program, this is a manifestation of that small percentage of errors. You just need to submit a data reconciliation report. The queue for an apartment is moving forward, as before, and your status is gradually approaching that of the owner.
