The Housing Court reversed the Review Board's decision to deny housing allowance from the application date due to a late move-in. Although the applicant's household only moved into the rented room on February 5, 1994, the court held this delay did not preclude granting support from the original application date of February 28, 1994. The court ruled that the administrative error in timing the move did not justify withholding the statutory benefit for the entire period.

A:lle, joka oli 28.2.1994 jättänyt asumistukihakemuksensa Kansaneläkelaitokselle, myönnettiin asumistuki 1.2.1994 lukien. Sen seikan, että A:n ruokakunta oli vasta 5.2.1994 muuttanut asumaan 1.2.1994 alkaen vuorkraamaansa asuntoon, ei katsottu olevan esteenä asumistuen myöntämiselle hakemiskuukauden alusta lukien. Tarkastuslautakunnan päätöstä muutettiin.
