Ciudadanos Policy proposes advancing 10% of their pension to young people so they can access housing

Ciudadanos continues to bet on revolutionary measures as part of its electoral program. The Liberals announced this Sunday, within the framework of their housing plan, one of their star proposals: that young people have the option of receiving 10% of their future pension in advance to be able to access the purchase of a house.

It is an idea with which the oranges foresee, in parallel, solving the problem of access to housing and providing security for those under 35, and rebalancing the intergenerational pact at a time when, as they have been denouncing, the pension system threatens to become unsustainable and become one of the main problems of economic sustainability of the State for the coming decades.

In a week marked by the acceleration that the Government has given thanks to the support of ERC and EH Bildu to unblock the Housing Law, Ciudadanos now proposes that young people can voluntarily request Social Security for an advance of up to 10% of the amount equivalent to 20 years of contributory pension for the acquisition of his habitual residence. The main objective, they explain in Ciudadanos, is to solve the serious problem of access to the real estate market for youth caused by their lack of liquidity to be able to assume the required entry.

This is a measure that, under the motto Advance your pension, create your home, the Ciudadanos technical team has been studying for weeks, which was announced this Sunday at the match with families in Sanchinarro (Madrid) -in which The leader of the formation, Patricia Guasp, as well as the Madrid candidates at the municipal and regional level, Begoña Villacís and Aruca Gómez, intervened, and that the Liberals will try to bring to Congress in the next plenary sessions, as happened with the proposal flexible working week that this newspaper announced on March 10.

The conditions set by Citizens to benefit from this measure would be to be under 35 years of age and have a minimum of five years of contributions, of which one and a half would have to be immediately prior to the request. To avoid speculative uses of the aid, the oranges also consider that the home cannot be sold in the five years following its acquisition and that, in any subsequent case, it will be necessary to return the amount advanced to Social Security.

Despite the revolution that this new model would entail for the contributory system, the calculations made by the Ciudadanos technicians confirm that it would not affect the financial balance of Social Security, would maintain the integrity of the pension system and would improve the real economic situation of young people. when they retire.
