About this service
Senior citizens whose income is not sufficient to rent private sector accommodation and are functionally independent (with and without community-based services). Based on a point-scoring system set by the Government of Alberta. Determined after completion of an Application for Accommodation and a personal interview. Placement on an eligibility list is determined by need rather than date of application.
Rent in seniors self-contained apartments is based on a rent-geared to income (RGI) formula. This means that rent is based on a percentage of the tenants adjusted income. In the case of a couple or two persons sharing a seniors self-contained apartment, the rent is based on the combined incomes of both. Rent is calculated at 30% of total gross income from all sources (i.e. pensions, investment income, etc.) with a maximum rate approved by the Governing Board (subject to review).
Who can use it?
Seniors with a low income
