Income not verifiable by the tax service counts as 7,500 lei a month for aid
The system automatically counts 7,500 lei of monthly income for people whose income cannot be verified, even if they declare less.
What it means for you
If you have no official income and declare zero or a small sum, the system still counts 7,500 lei a month. This may make you ineligible for compensation. Applications are submitted on compensatii.gov.md, for November until 27 November.
What happened
People who work informally and cannot prove their income are automatically assigned 7,500 lei a month when energy compensation is calculated. Last year the system used the minimum wage of 6,300 lei. Labour Minister Natalia Plugaru urges people to declare their real income, even if it is small.
