Currently, there are a large number of government support programs for different categories of borrowers. Mortgages for young families, preferential mortgages of 6% for large families, military mortgages, social mortgages - all these types open up additional opportunities when applying for a mortgage loan. Our task today is to consider how a mortgage for the police is issued in 2018, and whether it is difficult to obtain such support from the state.

People talk little and reluctantly about mortgages for the police. More and more about large families. There is nothing surprising in this; this is the current course of our state: to increase the birth rate. And everything would be fine, but there’s practically nowhere to get information about how mortgages are issued for police officers in 2018. Many people don’t even know that there is a mortgage for employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which can be obtained if you meet certain requirements both from the bank and from the structure in which you work.

Today we will look at how mortgages are issued for police officers in 2018, and we will also find out what other methods of obtaining mortgages on preferential terms can be used.

Mortgage for police in 2018: conditions.

In order for a police mortgage to be issued on appropriate terms in 2018, the employee must meet certain requirements. Since subsidies come from the state, it is unfortunately impossible to get a mortgage without meeting these requirements.

Work experience in law enforcement agencies must be at least 10 years. For some, this may seem like too much of a figure, but in fact, this period allows you to prove that you joined the authorities not to receive a preferential mortgage, but in order to truly benefit society. In addition, after 10 years of service, you can obtain an appropriate level of financial solvency, as well as enter the status of a large family. Let us remind you that the opportunity to use maternity capital comes with the birth of a second child.
Good credit history. This requirement is also understandable. Even if you have served in the police for 10 years, but you absolutely do not know how to control your income, and you are deeply in debt, you cannot count on a mortgage. A mortgage is a serious matter, and the financial responsibility falls on your shoulders.
Citizenship of the Russian Federation is also mandatory in all banks.
You must not be over 65 years of age at the time of repayment of the mortgage loan. For other mortgage products, an age of 75 years is allowed, but we must not forget about the specifics of the service and increased requirements for the applicant in this case. Mortgages for police officers in 2018 also contain increased requirements.
The need for housing improvements must be documented, and this is one of the most difficult requirements for a police officer mortgage in 2018.

How is it determined whether you need improved living conditions:

A mortgage for employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is issued if the building in which the apartment or room is located is in disrepair or dilapidated condition.
Also, VTB mortgages for police officers are issued if non-compliance with the norms and living standards established by law is revealed.
In addition, VTB mortgages for police officers are issued if they live in the same area as a sick or contagious person. In order to confirm this, it is necessary to issue an appropriate certificate.
You can also get a mortgage if you live in a dormitory, communal apartment or departmental housing.
In addition to active police officers, police officers transferred to the reserve, as well as families of law enforcement officers who died in the line of duty, can count on receiving financial assistance from the state. In order to exercise this right, you must receive a confirming certificate.

So, as we see, mortgages for police in 2018 are issued under special conditions that must be met. The need to prepare documentary evidence of the grounds for the application, as well as the need to prepare additional documents, makes the process of obtaining such a mortgage somewhat more complicated than in the general procedure.

However, a mortgage for police officers remains one of the most convenient ways to get new housing.

Mortgage for the police in 2018: documents and features.

As we mentioned above, mortgages for police officers in 2018 are issued only if you have documents confirming the need for housing, as well as documents confirming your compliance with the program requirements. Let's take a closer look at what documents are required in order to apply for a mortgage:

Russian passport of a police officer plus copies, including all pages of the passport.
Certificate of marriage or divorce.
Birth certificates of children, if available.
Passports of family members, as well as their copies.
A certificate from the bank about the debt balance and the quality of your credit history.
Certificate of employment confirming length of service and promotion.
A document confirming the need to resolve the housing issue.
Extract from the house register.
Details of the client's account (mortgage borrower's loan account).
Certificate of non-receipt of similar targeted assistance from the place of work.
Certificate of family composition.

All these documents, together with a completed and signed application with a request for the allocation of a targeted subsidy, must be handed over to an employee of a special authorized commission, which, after all the necessary checks, registers the applicant and assigns him the appropriate number in the queue. After these procedures, the Ministry of Internal Affairs employee will have to receive written notification that his application has been accepted.

The main features of mortgages for police officers in 2018 are as follows:

You are entitled to receive the subsidy, which can be used to pay off part of your mortgage debt, only once during your entire service life.
Before obtaining a mortgage loan, a police officer and his family can live in departmental housing (if there is free fund);
The amount of subsidies can vary significantly across regions of the Russian Federation and directly depends on the length of service, the cost of 1 sq. m. m. in a subject of the federation and social standards per 1 family member.

It is important to remember that government subsidies are only partially provided. In contrast, for example, to a military mortgage, in which the state fully covers the cost of housing and makes payments to the bank. This explains the increased requirements for participants in the mortgage program for police officers, since the balance of the debt will have to be repaid independently.

As a rule, subsidies from the state do not exceed 40% of the market value of the purchased property. This is only double the standard mortgage down payment. Therefore, many prefer to use these funds to make a down payment, thereby shortening the mortgage payment period, as well as reducing the monthly payment.

Mortgage for police in 2018: how to apply?

In most cases, for law enforcement officers, salaries have increased significantly over the past few years. Therefore, the employee’s personal funds, in general, are sufficient to service the mortgage loan without further government assistance, and a subsidy of 40% of the market value of housing is quite sufficient.

If you do not qualify for a subsidized mortgage for police officers on one or more points, you can always apply for a mortgage loan at any bank. As a police officer, you are a desirable customer for many banks: your job is stable, so is your salary, and you can definitely be relied upon to pay off your mortgage.

To fill out an application for the need to receive a subsidy, which will be used to pay off the mortgage, you should contact the regional AHML department. It is there that you can study the proposed terms of lending and subsidies as accurately as possible, and also get practical advice through which bank it is better to complete the transaction.
The second stage is submitting an application to the established commission to provide a one-time social payment to employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs under the federal executive body. In it, a person will be put in a queue.
After the policeman’s turn comes, he will be notified that the subsidy amount will soon be transferred to the mortgage loan account.

The processing time for each application is individual and depends mainly on the number of applications and the procedure for funding from the state budget. Sometimes the time delay can reach more than one month. This can become a serious problem if the proposed subsidy is used to pay the down payment for an immediate purchase of real estate.

For an already issued mortgage, after receiving a notification from the commission that the queue is approaching, you should definitely call or personally visit the creditor bank to report the fact of payment of an amount much greater than the size of the current monthly payment.

Some banks require you to write a corresponding application for partial or full early repayment of the debt. After the money is credited to the loan account, the remaining debt amount will be recalculated downwards.

Receiving a targeted subsidy from the state in 2018 provides police officers and members of their families with significant material support in improving their living conditions, which allows them to compensate up to 40% of the cost of housing. If the requirements are met, an employee of the Ministry of Internal Affairs will be able to apply for a preferential mortgage, repaying part of the debt using the subsidy provided, which will reduce the current credit burden on the family budget.

There is also a special mortgage for employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs at VTB Bank of Moscow. According to the conditions, it does not differ from a regular VTB mortgage, but there is a discount for police officers. So you can get a mortgage for an apartment at only 9.25%.

VTB mortgage for police officers: how profitable is it?

Currently, it is quite difficult to get truly favorable conditions for a mortgage. Despite the fact that mortgage rates are falling, they are still far from reaching a comfortable level. If you do not have the opportunity to take part in a program to support a large family and receive a rate of 6%, a VTB mortgage for police officers may be the most profitable solution.

In order to receive a rate of 9.25%, you will only need to apply for a mortgage on general terms and provide documents confirming your solvency and financial stability.

A perfect credit history will be required to receive approval. This requirement is always provided, since the bank must understand how well you cope with monthly payments.
You will also need to provide documents confirming your official employment with the police, as well as documents confirming your career growth. Such documents will allow you to receive approval with the greatest probability, since the bank will see that you are not only reliable, but also a promising borrower.
In addition, you will also need to provide proof of income. For police officers, it is issued according to the official form 2-NDFL.

As a rule, to obtain a mortgage for a police officer, no additional documents are required on a general basis or the involvement of co-borrowers. However, if you are denied a specialized subsidy, it is better to take care in advance to ensure that you are guaranteed to receive approval from at least VTB at 9.25%.

To do this, you can provide documents about real estate owned, if any, and also involve co-borrowers and guarantors. We remind you that a spouse becomes a co-borrower automatically, unless otherwise specified in the marriage contract.

In general, we can say that a mortgage for police officers from VTB Bank is the most advantageous offer if you are denied a specialized subsidy.

Conclusion: obtaining a mortgage for the police in 2018.

In our article, we tried to consider in as much detail as possible how a mortgage for the police is issued in 2018, and came to the conclusion that there are no particular difficulties in obtaining such a subsidy.

There are few disadvantages, but they are all significant:

To receive a subsidy, you must have documented reasons, and all the reasons are quite serious. Unfortunately, simply purchasing an apartment with a mortgage with government support will not work.
To receive a subsidy, you must work for at least 10 years.
The subsidy amount does not exceed 40% of the market value of housing, and is most often used to make an increased down payment.

However, for many, taking out a mortgage of this type may be the only way to get their own home. In order to pay off your mortgage as quickly and profitably as possible, we advise you to take advantage of a tax deduction, thanks to which you can return up to 390 thousand rubles over the entire period of payments. You can also refinance your mortgage after a few years and transfer it to more favorable terms. Don’t forget about the opportunity to apply for maternity capital, which will allow you to pay off your mortgage much faster.

Police officers are reliable and solvent clients for banks, so they actively offer them a variety of lending programs. The article presents the best loans for police officers.

As for any other borrowers, the main criteria for obtaining bank loans are a good credit history and sufficient solvency. But if a police officer has overdue debts, he can turn to microfinance companies for a loan.

In addition, a police officer can take advantage of preferential loans as a government employee.

Obtaining a consumer loan from a bank

You can get a consumer loan from a bank on the day you apply without issuing additional certificates or guarantors.

There are banks offering special loan programs for government employees. For example, such a program is available at Promsvyazbank. The loan is provided up to 1 million rubles, for a period of up to 7 years, the interest rate is from 13.9% per annum.

Other banks provide loans to police officers on a general basis. However, the interest rate and amount are determined on an individual basis.

The following banks offer good conditions:

Bank	Amount, thousand rubles	Duration, years	Interest rate, per annum	Terms
Bank of Moscow	Up to 3000	Up to 5	From 13.9%	Separate benefits exist for salary clients, the “People of Business” category (this category includes civil servants), and working pensioners.
Sberbank	Up to 3000	Up to 5	From 13.9%	For registration, a certificate of income and an extract from the work book are required.
Rosselkhozbank	Up to 1000	Up to 7	From 11.5%	When receiving an amount of more than 200 thousand rubles, the interest rate is set at 14.5% per annum
Rosbank	Until 2000	Up to 5	From 14.0%	The borrower's income can be confirmed by visiting the State Services website.
Sovcombank	Up to 1000	Up to 5	19%	Providing proof of income and employment is not required.

Thus, the conditions for lending under standard programs in banks do not differ from programs developed specifically for government employees, so police officers can apply to any credit institution.

How to speed up getting a loan?

You can apply for a loan today on the day you submit your application. The bank's decision depends on the requested amount and the individual characteristics of the borrower.

Ways to quickly obtain a loan:

If the client applies to the bank through which he receives his salary, the loan will be provided in the maximum possible amount on the day of application. The loan amount will be limited only by the borrower's solvency. To apply for a loan, you only need a passport and a second document. The borrower's income is calculated based on receipts to the card account.
Get a trade loan. If the borrower plans to purchase goods using credit funds, he can do this by applying for a product loan in a store. It will take no more than 1-1.5 hours.
The borrower can apply for a bank credit card once and use it at his own discretion. The card limit is determined based on the client’s solvency and the selected lending program. You can receive money using the card (after its activation) without approval from the bank.
To quickly choose a lender and speed up receiving a loan, you can submit an application on special online loan services. To do this, the borrower enters his own lending criteria, and the system selects a lender with the most suitable conditions.

Preferential loans for police officers

Police officers, as government employees, can take advantage of the government-backed mortgage loan program.

Only government employees who need to expand their living space and who have not previously received housing subsidies can participate in the program. The minimum length of service in the police is 10 years.

The essence of the program is that the participant is provided with a monetary subsidy for the purchase of housing, which serves as a down payment when applying for a mortgage from a bank.

The interest rate on such loans is up to 10% per annum, the loan term is up to 30 years.

Mortgages with state participation are not issued through all banks. The availability of this program in the bank is clarified in the organization or on the website.

Applying for a loan from an MFO

It happens that a police officer previously did not fulfill his obligations on time and ruined his credit history. Then he can receive a loan from the bank only if he provides a guarantee, but the bank’s decision will be influenced by the number of delays, their size and duration.

An alternative to going to a bank is to apply for a loan from an MFO. The main condition here is the absence of delays in the company itself.

You can get a loan within 15 minutes, but the interest rates are several times higher than bank rates, the amounts are small and the term is short:

MFO	Terms
E-Loan	Amount up to 30 thousand rubles, for a period of up to 30 days. Interest rate up to 2.1% per day. The first loan is provided without interest.

In the Russian Federation there are many programs of state participation in providing people with their own housing. Thus, a mortgage for police officers is similar to a similar program for military personnel. However, it has serious differences from it.

Let's look at how law enforcement officials can use budget funds to improve living conditions in 2019.

Features of the program

Criteria for participation of police officers in the support program

The program for police officers is quite different from the mortgage subsidy for the military. The latter receive funds into a savings account and can use them to buy a house. The serviceman only needs to tell his superiors about problems with housing, and they will help him.

The conditions of the state program for police officers are drawn up differently.

A serviceman of the Ministry of Internal Affairs must meet the following criteria:

have more than 10 years of service in the Ministry of Internal Affairs;
do not previously use this type of support;
need to improve housing (according to current legislation).

The budget will not simply pay for square meters. The state helps only those people who really do not have normal living conditions. Proving this fact is simple: you need to stand in line at the local authorities. There, they will ask for documents and evaluate the existing living conditions. If they do not meet the standards, they will be put on a waiting list.

Pensioners of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and widows of those killed in service retain the right to receive this type of state support.

Documents for assistance

To receive money from the state, you need to submit an application. You should contact the federal executive authorities.

The following documents must be attached to the application:

evidence that such support has not previously been provided;
certificate of work experience in the Ministry of Internal Affairs (an important criterion for selecting candidates);
an extract from the house register of the current place of residence for the last five years;
certificates of property owned by family members;
passport (copies of all completed pages);
ID cards of all family members (copies);
certificate of family composition (original);
marriage (divorce) certificate;
a certificate stating that the applicant needs improved living conditions.

The application is written in the prescribed form. It is better to draw it up in consultation with an appropriate specialist.

Advantages of mortgages for military personnel of the Ministry of Internal Affairs

Applications for assistance are considered within a two-month period. All papers are checked for accuracy. This should be understood.

If everything is in order, then the necessary amount will be allocated in the budget, which will be transferred to your personal account. It can only be used for the stated purposes: to improve housing.

More specifically, money can be spent on:

first mortgage payment;
repayment of an already taken loan.

The amount of government support depends on several factors. They vary by region.

As a rule, the final amount is affected by the size:

average cost per square meter in the subject of the federation;
area standard, calculated using a special formula (approved by the relevant government);
length of service, special merits and others.

In practice, police officers receive assistance that covers half the cost of the apartment. The specific amount can be judged by multiplying the market price of a meter by the area standard.

So, you can rely on the following indicators:

per person 33 sq. m;
for two - 42 sq. m;
for three or more - 18 sq. m.

Calculation example

Let’s say a police officer whose family consists of five people applied to improve their living conditions. According to the norm, he is entitled to an apartment of the following size:

5 people x 18 sq. m = 90 sq. m.

To find out the approximate amount of support in 2019, you need to make the following calculation:

90 sq. m x price per square meter on the market of the corresponding region.
The result obtained should be divided in half.

State aid is allocated in accordance with the standards. You can also spend it on a smaller area.

The importance of state support

Mortgages for police officers make it possible to provide housing for people involved in law enforcement and their families. The loan is issued on preferential terms.

As a rule, the rate does not exceed 10%.
Banks do not charge such borrowers interest for issuing money and try to establish flexible repayment terms.
Due to the fact that the mortgage is issued for a long term, the family does not suffer from the withdrawal of large sums from the budget every month. Paying such a mortgage is not very expensive.
It is possible to use maternity capital to pay off part of the debt.

The program for military personnel of the Ministry of Internal Affairs also has certain disadvantages.

The Russian government regularly implements preferential projects to provide citizens with housing. Mortgages for police officers in 2016 are one of such events designed to improve the quality of life in Russia. It has some nuances and features, but in general, it offers favorable conditions for purchasing living space.

By this act, the Russian Federation fulfills its direct responsibility to care for both employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and their families. The mortgage program presented above provides special conditions for lending for the purchase of housing and is considered preferential:

Low interest rate on bank payments.

Long terms for providing a loan.

If, for good reason, it is necessary to extend the deadline for fulfilling loan obligations further, this does not mean at all that the police officer will fall into heavy financial bondage. A long payment period will allow you not to burden your family with large payments and to fully enjoy private housing.

Preferential mortgage conditions in the police include the presence of a housing certificate, which can be used both as a first payment to the bank and for further payments to the bank on the loan.

Process of receiving benefits

To participate in the preferential mortgage program, it is not enough to serve as part of the Russian police; applicants must meet certain requirements:

Service experience of at least ten years (service in “hot spots” and awards are welcome).

Have a special certificate for obtaining housing or have the right to receive it.

Situated in unfavorable living conditions.

Have a family status and have minor children.

The preferential social program for obtaining a mortgage in the police is supported by the laws of the Russian Federation and the rules of the Housing Code, according to which a police officer is guaranteed to receive the required subsidy for the purchase of living space. The payment is 50% and is accrued from the State Budget of the Russian Federation. This applies to the housing certificate, as the main document for mortgage loan payments.

The borrower must pay the remaining amount of money on the terms provided by the bank. The obligations under this agreement come into force from the moment the mortgage agreement is concluded. In cases of violation of the terms of the agreement, regular non-payments, the creditor has the right to resort to influence on the debtor within the framework of the legislation of the Russian Federation. In such situations, the bank confiscates the mortgaged housing.

Mortgage program for the benefit of Russia

Mortgage program for the Ministry of Internal Affairs - includes categories of police officers who support dependent members of their family. Cases of violation of mortgage lending terms in the ranks of the police are extremely rare, since the employees are servants of Themis who do not violate the laws of society.

The majority of clients of this social program of the Russian Federation are satisfied with the government benefits provided to them and consider it an excellent method of motivating them to perform high-quality service in the police. Which further strengthens the composition of the Ministry of Internal Affairs with highly professional employees with significant experience, significantly improves personnel potential.

This means that the preferential mortgage program is intended not only to improve the living conditions of responsible, positively motivated citizens of Russia, but also acts for the benefit of the Fatherland. More and more Russian citizens serving in the police are taking part in mortgage lending in different regions of our country.

Documents for granting a mortgage

To become a participant in the presented social program, the following list of documentation provided to the federal authorities of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is required:

An application in the prescribed form, with mandatory confirmation that the applicant did not participate in such a benefit program.

Copies of financial accounts.

Copies of ID cards of all family members.

Certificates from the house register for five years.

A certificate confirming an inspection for improvement of living conditions.

Copies of marriage registration certificates (if available).

Copies of children's birth certificates (if available).

A certificate confirming the presence of the required length of service in the ranks of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

A certificate confirming the absence of any other housing in the property other than the one in which the employee and his family are registered.

A document confirming the citizen’s rights to purchase additional space (if necessary).

The application, together with the submitted list of documents, is considered within a period of no later than two months from the date of its submission to the relevant authorities of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. If the decision is positive, the required amount of money is transferred to the applicant’s bank account.

If you still have questions, you can ask them to the lawyers of the website 33 Yurista.ru. Legal advice on the purchase of housing will allow you to avoid lengthy paperwork and not rush into choosing a realtor for the transaction.

The state offers many different federal programs aimed at helping in purchasing housing. Each program is designed only for certain categories of citizens who meet the conditions. If we talk about special loans for law enforcement officers, the law does not provide for a mortgage for the police; federal subsidy programs do not allow a specific benefit for police officers. But these citizens still have the opportunity to receive a subsidy for the purchase of housing with a mortgage.

Social benefits for police officers

There is no mortgage for police officers, but there is a special government program under which police officers can receive social benefits. This payment can be used to purchase housing.

Such a subsidy should not be confused with a military mortgage, which is associated with the Accumulative Mortgage System; a serviceman must remain in it for three years. The police subsidy does not involve a long wait. If a citizen meets the requirements of the program, he can collect documents and submit them for consideration, and then receive the due payment.

What is this subsidy?

The calculation of the required subsidy will be individual for each candidate. The basis is the average cost per square meter of housing in a particular region and the number of people in the policeman’s family. According to the standards, one person who does not have a family is entitled to 33 square meters of living space. According to the standards, a family of two people is already entitled to 42 square meters; with a larger number of family members, they are entitled to 18 square meters each.

Next, the benefit amount is calculated using a formula that includes various coefficients that depend on the place of service and the citizen’s length of service in law enforcement agencies. As a result of the calculation, a certain amount is obtained, which can be used to purchase housing, including a mortgage. Thanks to the subsidy, you can completely cover the mandatory contribution or use the amount set by the state as a method of increasing the maximum amount approved by the bank.

How to get a subsidy?

The subsidy is provided only once; the police officer must meet the program requirements:

work in authorities for more than 10 years;
the citizen must be recognized by local authorities as needing housing;
Families of police officers who died in the line of duty can also count on financial assistance within the framework of this subsidy;
Police officers who have already retired, but registered while still in service, are also entitled to the payment.

If you meet these conditions and are found to be in need of housing, then you can begin submitting documents to receive a subsidy. To do this, a report is submitted to the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs at your place of service, after which you are registered to receive a subsidy.

As a result, a mortgage is issued for police officers using a government subsidy. You can apply for such a mortgage at any large bank, for example, Sberbank, VTB24, Rosselkhozbank and others.
