Duty to report a child’s income increase in subsidized housing

Omnilex-Zusammenfassung

The beneficiaries of a subsidized apartment challenged a retroactive surcharge imposed after the income of one child living in the common household increased by CHF 37,616. The court held that this increase was not minor and had to be reported. Because the beneficiaries failed to notify the authority, the retroactive surcharge was justified and the challenge was dismissed.

Omnilex-Regeste

LGL.31; obligation to notify changes affecting entitlement to subsidized housing; a substantial increase in the income of a child living in the common household is not a negligible change. Beneficiaries of social housing subsidies must report such a modification; failure to do so justifies retroactive reassessment and imposition of a surcharge (consid. unspecified).

Résumé

Une augmentation du salaire de l'un des enfants vivant en ménage commun avec ses parents, de l'ordre de Frs 37'616.-, ne peut être considérée comme minime. Les bénéficiaires d'un logement subventionné ont l'obligation légale d'annoncer une telle modification, faute de quoi le prélèvement rétroactif d'une surtaxe se justifie.
