Summary and headline written by AI from the source article. How we work
The Croatian Health Insurance Administration (HZMO) will distribute 3.121.400 euros to 19,539 Croatian citizens as a national allowance for older people.
Croatian citizens age 65 and older who have lived in Croatia for at least ten years can apply for this allowance. To qualify, people must not receive a pension or be covered by mandatory pension insurance. Additionally, monthly household income per member cannot exceed twice the amount of the national allowance, which is 320.44 euros.
Applicants also cannot be receiving guaranteed minimum assistance or have an agreement for lifetime maintenance that provides them with income. People eligible for the national allowance will receive it from the date they submit their application, assuming they meet all requirements. Those who previously received a pension or guaranteed minimum assistance will begin receiving the allowance the day after those prior benefits stop. Individuals can submit their applications in person, by mail, or electronically through the e-Građani system.
