Sakani - Military Support: Who Qualifies and What You Get
Active military personnel in Saudi Arabia can apply for a non-refundable housing grant to help secure a home.
This scheme provides financial assistance to members of the military to help them secure a home through the Sakani program.
Who it's for
This support is specifically designed for active military personnel serving in the security forces. To be eligible, you must be currently serving in the military and you must not have received any form of prior housing support from the government.
What you get
If you qualify, you can receive a non-refundable grant to assist with your housing costs. This financial support can be as high as 140,000 SAR, which is intended to help make homeownership more accessible for those in active service.
What it costs you
There is no direct fee to apply for this support. However, the process requires you to provide specific documentation to prove your eligibility. You will need to provide official proof of your active military service and documentation confirming that you do not currently own any real estate.
The catch to know
While the grant is a significant benefit, the most important thing to keep in mind is that this grant is often tied to specific bank financing agreements. This means the way you receive or use the money may be linked to how your mortgage or home loan is structured through a financial institution.
How to apply
- Visit the official Sakani portal to begin your application process.
- Register your personal details and service information within the system.
- Upload the necessary documents to prove your active military status and lack of existing property ownership.
- Follow the specific instructions provided on the portal to complete the submission and review your eligibility.
