Aide personnalisée au logement (APL) is a personalized housing assistance that the French government gives to low-income households, students, the unemployed, etc. It is managed by the local CAF offices across France.
Did you know? You can use an online simulator to estimate your eligibility for housing assistance (APL) from the CAF website.

Can I receive housing assistance (APL) if I am subletting?
Yes. Both the tenant and the subtenant of a part of the accommodation can receive housing assistance (APL) if they meet certain criteria:
- The subtenant must be under 30 or over 60 years old or be in a situation of disability.
- The property owner must be informed of the subletting and approval is mandatory.
- These rules do not apply to subletting the entire accommodation.
