How to apply – The first steps

As is typical of similar "Save" programs, applications will be made online and those interested must definitely have TAXISnet codes.

In the event that there are pending legalization/regularization issues, before submitting the application, the initial declaration of belonging to a law regulating illegal constructions must have been made, while exceptionally a later declaration can be made only in case of deviation of the useful area of ​​the property up to 7 square meters measure.

The supporting documents include the cleared income tax return (E1) for the year 2021, the settlement of all pending matters in the detailed statement of real estate leases (E2) and the declaration of real estate data (E9). In this regard, it is pointed out that the electricity supply number should be correctly entered on the tax, property lease and property status forms. Especially in the case of recent property acquisition (acquisition for the first time of a real right on the property after 12/31/2020) the entry/amendment of the data in the statement of real estate data E9 must have preceded. If there are several beneficiaries of real rights in the property, the consent of the parties must be secured and the electricity supply number must be correctly entered in the declaration of their property details (E9).

In order to submit the application to the program, the issuance of the Energy Performance Certificate of the property and the formulation of the Proposal for Energy Saving Interventions are required.

In the event that the application is characterized as "Primarily Eligible", it will also be required to issue and submit electronically to the Electronic Identity Program (the supporting documents are attached by the candidate electronically). For the submission of an application, automated electronic checks are carried out, through a relevant interface with databases, after the user's consent and order.

What is provided for in special cases

In applications for which automated checks are not technically feasible and are examined by the program implementing body, the body checks the supporting documents and data for the issuance of the ranking tables of eligible / runner-up / rejected applications, as well as the affiliation decision. In this case, all required supporting documents must be valid on the date of submission of the application and correctly completed.

If someone is a tax resident abroad (that is, he is registered with the DOU for foreign residents, is taxed in Greece and has an obligation to submit a declaration only for incomes arising in Greece). In this case, for the certification of foreign income, the interested party must additionally provide: a) CERTIFICATE OF TAX RESIDENCE, which must be completed, signed and stamped by the competent tax authority of his Residence b) Tax return for the reference year, submitted to the country of Tax Residence. The specific supporting documents must be submitted accompanied by their official translation into the Greek language by a competent authority.

However, an application may not need to be accompanied by tax information. This is the case where there is no legal obligation to submit an income statement (E1 form) or a detailed statement in the case of a free concession (E2 form) and therefore it is not possible to electronically cross-check either the income category or the main use of the residence, for ascertaining the completeness of the program criteria. This category may include either foreign tax residents (declarants or spouses of the debtor) or dependent children who

Points that require attention

When submitting the applications, it must be taken into account that for each eligible natural person (for each applicant's TIN) only one application can be submitted. Similarly, only one application must be submitted for each eligible residence of the specific program. It is noted that a residence, with an active application in one of the energy upgrade programs, "Home Savings II" and "Save-Autonomous" and "Save 2021", does not have the right to submit to the current program. An exception is the case of a "type B" multi-family housing application apartment of the "Save - Self-Employment" program, which is allowed to be applied for as a single apartment in the current program.

Finally, as is well known, the program is divided into two sections, "Save for Young People" and "Renovate for Young People", but it should be taken into account that it is not possible to apply for "Renovate" only, as the participation in "Save" is a condition for the application to belong to "Renovate".
