What this service does for you

Supplementary benefits help when the AHV or IV pension and other income do not cover the recognized living costs. After a stroke, this affects many families because rent, nursing home fees or Spitex bills quickly exceed their own money. The SVA Zürich processes the applications for most municipalities in the canton; the city of Zürich has its own office. The application is made in writing with a form that can be downloaded online.
