KUWAIT: The Women’s Housing Affairs Committee on Sunday called on female citizens with historical priority rental housing applications registered with the Public Authority for Housing Welfare (PAHW) from 2010 and earlier to update their information and submit the required documents. In a press statement, PAHW said the committee set dates for receiving renewal applications for female citizens registered in 2005 and earlier from September 14 to 18, while applications from 2010 and earlier will be accepted from September 21 to 25. The update process also applies to disabled Kuwaiti women with rental housing applications registered with the authority.
The authority emphasized that updates can be conducted at the Citizen Service Department in the Housing building during morning and evening shifts. External centers – including Liberation Tower, Jahra, Al-Qurain and The Avenues mall – will operate during the morning shift only. Required documents include a copy of the applicant’s civil ID, nationality certificate, marriage contract for married women, divorce certificate for divorced women, or husband’s death certificate for widows. Educational certificates for children from the last two academic years and certificates from the General Administration of Ports for 2023–2025 are also needed.
Additional documents include a certificate from the Real Estate Registry on property ownership of the applicant and her husband, a certificate from the Commercial Registry Department, a certificate from the Public Authority for the Affairs of Persons with Disabilities if applicable, salary certificates and certificates from Social Insurance or the Ministry of Social Affairs. PAHW urged female citizens with rental housing applications registered with historical priority for 1980, 1990 and 2000 who have previously been invited to update their data to complete the process promptly to ensure the smooth processing of their applications. — KUNA
