You can receive the social bonus if:

  • you have an ISEE that does not exceed 12,000 euro

or:

  • you have a large family (more than 3 children) with an ISEE not exceeding 20,000 euro

or:

  • you have a family receiving citizenship income (reddito di cittadinanza) or a citizenship pension (pensione di cittadinanza)

 

To qualify for the social bonus for economic hardship one person in the household must be the holder of an electricity, gas or water contract.

Attention:
It is also possible to request the bonus in the case of a condominium gas or water utility.
(Often, gas or water contracts are in the name of the condominium: this means that the person does not receive a bill, because water bills are part of the condominium expenses).
