Vienna checks reclaims: Energiebonus under suspicion!

Wien, Österreich - in Vienna there is a recovery of the controversial energy monus, which was paid out between 2022 and 2023. A total of 1,327,397 applications were submitted, but in 17,864 cases, which corresponds to 1.3 percent, repayment is now required. According to ORF Vienna , those affected received messages by post, in which it is stated that the maximum permissible annual income was exceeded. Depending on the case, the repayment amounts were 200 or 400 euros.

review and deadlines

The city of Vienna is currently examining all applications for compliance with the income limits, which are 40,000 euros for one-person households and 100,000 euros for multi-person households. Before a recovery letter, however, a letter of request is only sent, in which documents are requested that prove compliance with the financial requirements. This gives those affected the opportunity to express themselves and do not oblige them to repay immediate. The MA 40 service phone is available for questions, as in wien.gv.at

During the term of the energyonus, around 265 million euros were spent, whereby the measure served to provide support to citizens in the period of increasing energy costs. In 2023, the last year was the last year for energy, since it will be replaced by a reorganization of rental and living allowance. This ends an important acute aid, which many Viennese promised stability in economically difficult times.
