Removal from the Social Housing Waiting List in Tilburg: Causes and Remedies

In Tilburg, housing associations such as WonenBreburg and Tiwos manage social rental housing and may remove you from the register, but exclusively on the grounds of the Housing Act. Discover why this happens in the Tilburg context and how to take action via Woonloket Tilburg.

Reasons for Removal in Tilburg

No response to invitations within the standard 2-week period, incorrect or outdated data in the Tilburg registration system, income above the qualification threshold of €44,035 (2024), or acceptance of another dwelling elsewhere in the region. In cases of passivity longer than 12 months, such as often occurs at the Woonloket, removal follows to keep waiting lists efficient for active seekers in neighbourhoods such as Oud-Zuid or Het Zand.

Re-registration Possible in Tilburg?

Yes, after correction of the cause. Submit a new application at Woonloket Tilburg with a motivation letter. Proof of good faith, such as correspondence with the housing association, helps in disputes and preservation of waiting time. Local examples show that quick re-registration often succeeds in cases of administrative errors.

Legal Proceedings in Tilburg

Lodge an objection within 6 weeks with the relevant housing association or Woonloket. If rejected, you can proceed to the District Court of Zeeland-West-Brabant in Breda. The judge may annul the removal if the procedure was not carried out carefully, as in recent cases involving Tilburg housing associations where disproportionate penalties were overturned.

Stay active on the Tilburg waiting list by promptly reporting changes such as address changes or income changes to the Woonloket. This way, you prevent unexpected removal, preserve your accrued waiting time, and increase your chances of an affordable dwelling in the municipality.
